spidermites like a beast... need some help

well im about 4 weeks into flower on 1 table n 6weeks on the other the table. on the right (week 6) dosnt seem to have any problem because wen we first caught it we did preventive sprays with safer soap n it seems to hold them off but not eliminate them. about 4 days ago we relased 4000 lady bugs and we thought they wer working well. until this morning i went in the room n the left table (week 4) had a nice web around a bud with a group of spidermites on the tip of the leaf. i dont have pictures right now but i jus wanna kno if there other insecticides that would be safe around ladybugs n around late floweing plants. i know im gonna have to clean my room completely jus wanna wait till harvest. any advice is appretiated.

pest strips or foggers work, azamax will work as well.

n the foggers r safe around the plants?

i had spider mites pretty bad myself until i went and got some no pest strips and it wiped them of the face of the earth...they worked very good for me

check out this thread
WTF is with these frickin spider mites!?

thanks yo this really does help its my first grow n im jus tryin not to fuck up too badly

The day before I finally hung my first No Pest Strip i could see hundreds, if not thousands
of mites crawling on four perfect pots. This mind you is after a two month veg and a month of flowering,
keeping mites constantly at bay with sprays and oils every three days. Neem, Azamax, Organicide, and a few others.
I finally got fed up with the organic way, which seems like arming yourself with a frilly toothpick and walking into
an automatic weapon firefight, and telling everyone to throw down their weapons and leave.
So at lights off the next day, I hung a seven dollar No Pest Strip. Twelve hours later, and twentyfour hours after seeing
numbers in the many hundreds, I was impressed to count on one hand the number of mites on each pot.
If you're an organic person, these might not be for you.
I for one am relieved to now be able to tend to the needs of bug free plants, instead of devoting all of my gardening time
to defending against bugs in a natural, organic battle that never ends.

I know no pest strips work great but I have read a lot of things saying that it is not safe on consumable products. I would advise people to not use it ( especially if your grow is in the same room where you sleep). There's a good thread on here sumwhere explaining more in detail.
I just found mites in my grow. Used neem oil n lady bugs. Hopefully they wont return, but they probably will since I live in socal (spider mite central).

I love lady bugs

Yep me 2. Just got 1500 for $10 at local hydro shop. Only needed about 50 for my closet grow but that's the only amount they sell. Probably gonna let them go in my outdoor garden.

Spray them with sugary soda to "glue" there wings to prevent them from flying and make sure you have selead light (or seal it) unless you want bbq lady bug for dinner.

Your mean, lol soda
