If you’re in veg whole bunch of treatment options: neem oil, spinosad, pyrethrin, peppermint oil, rosemary oil even alternating combination of them.

in flower citric acid based stuff is pretty much all you can do.

having a pressurized garden sprayer(the kind with a tank and air pump) helps too, you can get a bit of force behind the spray to knock some of whatever pest down

Originally I was curious as to what this was. I've only had spider mites 1 time and that was a year ago. I had Two Spotted Spider Mites and wasn't familiar with these. I believe these are Red Mites from my understanding or at least visually. I haven't brought a tree from outside in over a year and I have no idea how this started. I'm assuming the lemon tree I have may have Spider Mites and somehow they got on my shoes I keep outside and I took them into my Veg, but I still can't pin it.

Typically I run my sulfur pot twice a week for 2 hours each time, but it had bee 4 months since I last used it. I've heard this helps minimize or prevent mites.

I started with Forbid, 2nd day complete deleaf and clean, 3rd day later I used Attain TR Fogger, and 3 days later I used Pyre Fogger. After 3 days of Forbid those suckers stopped moving. I haven't seen a moving mite since Monday/Tuesday of this week. I don't see any new damage, or bites.

In about 2 days I'm going to use Spinosad in rotation for 3 days.

I don't know what else to do to make sure they don't come back, but as of now seems cleared out.

you could have done this plain old Citric acid witn zero contamination possibilities!

What’s all that crap you’re throwing at your plants going to do to you or your customers?

have you checked it’s carcinogenic information?

have you checked others pesticide lab analysis where they used “Spiromesifen” the active ingredient?

did it leave any residuals in the plant material etc?
