Lady bugs trust me they eat them find some around outside and put them on the affected plant you can literally watch them start eating them right away.

if you make them a little "house" in your grow room, they'll stick around for a while.

If u got a spider mite infestation, lady bugs aren't gonna do jack shit for u! U use lady bugs as a preventative maintenance. Go to ur hydro store and use 'mighy wash'. It's simple and works like a charm, been using it for a few years now when things pop up. End of discussion.
In flower it's hard to bring oneself to spray.
What's your temps and rh?
60° it takes an egg a month to become an adult
80° it takes it only a week.
This is at 60 rh
What I'm saying is do what you going to do. But to help whatever product you use, get your temps as low as plants will allow and rh above 65.
You will continue to grow mites if you don't fix the environment. Its going to be a team effort between your efforts of controlling the room and whatever you buy.

Spray Every Week in veg, I’ve used it four weeks into flower with no affects on taste. Since I started using it I haven’t had a pest. I don’t miss a week. I don’t use in flower though I spray the day I put them in flower and leave it there now.

I can tell you that a mix with 75% rubbing alcohol and water will fuck up your plants for sure. I tested it one time havent gotten to the 50% test as I put it on the shelf. But yeah you need to be careful doing this.

Great. Just great. NOW, I read this. Speaking from experience, I can say that you don't want to blast them with undiluted alcohol either, even if it's only the 70% stuff. And here I was thinking the shit would just quickly evaporate, and things would be fine..... Lol. Whoops...
