If you don't want to use chemicals, try this: Shut off all your lights. Let the room cool down as much as you can (ie:50-60 def. F) Increase the CO2 level above 10,000 ppm for one hour and use an oscillating fan to circulate the air. Vent it back down to below 1600ppm. Repeat as needed, but probably no more than once per day. The high CO2 should kill the spider mite but not plants (eventually it will, but not in one hour with the lights off) or eggs.

this is your best bet since you don't want to spray azamax onto the flowers unless you wanna smoke pesticide lol.
