Trichome size bug close to harvest...What is it?

Blue Dream. Outdoor grow. I was checking trichomes under a microscope when this bug came walking across (sorry it's not clearer, I had to snap quickly). It's the only one I saw but I'm guessing if there's one then there are probably more. Does anyone know what it might be? I suspect I shouldn't use any insecticide at this point but I'm worried about a sudden infestation. Should I be concerned? I can't harvest just now because I'll be away for a few days. Any feedback is welcome. Thanks.

I could be wrong but it does look a lot like a russet mite.
