I use a 3 part treatment...the reason, mites become immune quickly to certain pesticides so best to "throw them off"

3 ingredients:
Captain Jacks deadbug (organic)...this is a biological treatment called spinosad...works for like 80 different pests.
Bon Neem: a neem oil and pyretherin spray
Mite X by Bonide: clove oil, garlic oil, cottonseed oil.

I start with the Bon Neem, spray plants tops and bottoms of the leaves.... wait about 3-4 days...
Then I spray Captain Jacks Deadbug, i usually mix this in with nutrients usually used in foliar feedings, wait 3-4 days.
Then I spray Mite X, again covering tops and bottoms of leaves.....

By now you should not see any mites, but its best to repeat this cycle for 30 days to make sure to kill off any new spidermites that may hatch...

This has worked 100% completely on 2 different occasions....


Also Spinosad is good for thrips and many other pests, OMRI listed and can "supposedly" be sprayed up until harvest on food crops. I use it in my foliar spray during veg for a preventative measure, and the effects of 1 spray are supposed to last up to 3 weeks.
