Get rid of these blocks afterwards... put em in a sealy bag and triple wrap them. Dont keep em anywhere near you... they are toxic to humans! Only use them when you have to

thanks for that bro, might be worth using in the 1 spot i got left to try save the genetics of mac/fritters ?
I've just had some neem oil come today - is it worth spraying this in the already emptied room to help try make sure everything dead?
Would using neem oil in a oil diffuser do anything or is it better to spray it directly onto the walls/floors etc ?

neem is systemic and absorbs into the plant so that when feeders take a bite it inhibits their reproduction.
Hot shots release a toxic vapour to kill anything that comes into contact with it.
In order to kill anything in your tent/room via contact go and grab some permethrin based contact killer from HOME BARGAINS £4.
Then if you want to you can use the hot shot no pest strip.
I haven’t used these since the V1’s that you could definitely smell the vapour lol.
I grow from seed almost exclusively now and I’ve found that near perfect environment control is one of the best methods for bug prevention.
Citric acid spray is also a good insecticide although in yet to try it myself as I barely get any pests thanks to a hidden room that I use to grow in and contingencies like, if I’ve been outside I don’t enter my grow until I’ve been inside a few hours or until I get changed etc.

@jondamon alright cool so now the room is empty I'll spray down with permethrin (bug clear ultra) and then hang a hot shot.
by time the seedlings are coming through in few weeks I'll remove the hot shot and start a fresh with my new seedlings and hopefully the fuckers are gone forever and I'm never buying clones again haha
edit: to be clear the seedlings arent in the grow area currently & i've already washed it down one time with hot bleach water

I know they definitely came with the eggs on them I just didn’t know what the white dots were at the time.... what do you guys think to this? It could work out if I put up a little tent and they stay in quarantine but I really cba with it all again would rather be safe just running seeds ?

I would take the offer and as soon as they arrive scope them and take pics.
some people are oblivious to bugs on their plants!

aye I could do that is it worth risk of infection again tho, if I kept them in a separate little tent they could still spread but if i wipe them down with soapy water on arrival I be ok?
there is the slim chance it came from my biobizz light mix? I thought they had white dots on arrival though however 6 weeks ago and daily smoker could be wrong memory aint great lol

Spider mites don’t live in soil mate afaik.
My idea would be proving a point.
is your grow in your kitchen?
because you can inspect the clones upon arrival and photograph any evidence of bugs to show him that on arrival they were infested if they are infested.
I like proving points lol.
If they’re infested throw them away. Cost you nothing.
If they’re not infested and are clear if you don’t want them gift them someone. Cost you nothing.

no not in the kitchen lol cool so just give them a thorough look under a microscope for any bugs/eggs?

Exactly.
when I was supplying clones (free) I was clean and tidy and bug free and i wouldn’t charge for clones as they were taken to keep my mother small etc.
if I was charging for clones I would follow the same process and keep everything clean and bug free.
for someone to charge £10-£30 a clone I would expect it to be even more clean that I used to be.
So to get clones that are infested and being charged would be delivered a knuckle sandwich from me! Lol.

alright lads I'll take the offer of another lot of clones, this time they'll be getting a good checking under microscope and then dunked (bleach? hydro peroxide? soapy water?) and keep them separate for a few weeks. I'll let y'all know how it goes.
mean time I'll crack on with the jelly pancakes & 818 headband, I'll run the clones next time if they're clean.

Sounds like a plan and like I said it’s costing you nothing.

That could take a bit of pressure off if safe.

Is the above or permethrin safe to use during flower?
One thing I dread more than anything is mites/thrips during flower, I'm not aware of anything that's safe to use on edibles/smoke-able hence the dread.

You've got thrips and you're asking £80 for your clones
