I have a minor infestation of mites. I've been able to keep them at Bay with Citric acid and other remedies, however now that my tents are empty I'd like to go full nuclear and eliminate them if possible. What are the best options for this. My tents are in a 24x24 ft shop for reference of sq. Footage. Thanks in advance for any help.

I should mention my main concern is for the sterilization of my shop and tents, not killing anything on plants. Are there any foggers or would a sulfer burn be effective?

Thanks for your response. The only issue with that is amazon will not deliver to my address, and I can't see to find it anywhere else but in bulk cases. From what I read on their site I would only need one fogger.

Also yes I should clarify I need to sterilize the shop and tents. All plants are being quarantined in a tent in another area with Citric acid and CannControl.

Outright fumigation. That takes care of termites. Requires you staying overnight somewhere else. It kills everything.

My concern would be sulfer smells lingering in boxes of stored belongings and corrosiveness. I use the shop to keep stuff like decorations and tools. I also have some drill presses and saws that are stored in there. Would I need to pretty much clear it out and then burn or just have at it?

I wouldn't use near machinery with bearings and races. I would expect etching.

Ok so sulfer is probably out at this point. Maybe my best bet is to make a bigass batch of citric and just spray the entire shop. It might be a bitch but I think I have an old 2 gallon sprayer and wand laying around.
