foggers. (prefer a normal nozzl replacing the fogger nozzle) You can control and limit the amount. Plus giver better coverage. You *need* to get the undersides of the leaves. Spraying the tops of laves is pointless, they ain't there. Follow up dose in 5 days and then again in 5 more days.

Dense plants, a squirt bottle is a stop-gap solution.
 

Where in the hell am I?

I believe (as I have said time and time again), that if you let lady bugs out in yer room, you will still have bad bugs + dead crispy lady bugs that flew right into the lights as they turned on! If you have a large enuf room w/enuf plants, foggers! If not, get watever spray you find that you are comfortable sprayin on yer plants

forget about ladybugs, I tried them and they don't do much. I let go 1500 over a period of 3 weeks and they didn't do shit! I use the doctor doom pyrethin spray that's in an aerosol spray. It works well. use in conjuction with a dr doom bomb and you'll be alright. I finally got rid of mites after having them foor 6 months! I would think I got them and then they would come back with a vengence.

i had a mite problem for about 2-3 months used the 50% water 50% alcohol solution and sprayed all the undersides of the leaves thought it worked good until about 3-4 weeks later i saw they came back Dr. Dooms is the way to go finally used the fogger and the spray and killed them all and hopefully there bastard ass eggs as well bc that the main problem u can kill the mites all day but unless u get the eggs early ur doomed. Spider mites will become immune to any pesticides u use generation after generation.

once you do get rid of them start hanging no pest strips in your grow area to prevent them

my friend is using azatrol and he has spider mites baddddddddddddddddd, and he says its working awesome and the lady at the grow store said when they did they can not return to the plant. The bottle is like 100 bucks for a medium size bottle but its worth it

DUDE DONT USE DR. DOOM! Yes it will probably kill the mites but just know your using a chemical on the plant there fore ur gonna taste it on the plant when its done. IT says its safe up until harvest but but i wouldn't use that stuff during flowering period! Unless u plan on doing a water cure ur finished product will have a faint chemical taste and when burned will smell kinda funky as well. Use the neem oil, insecticidal soaps, or a predator mite. always hang up no pest strips this is def a key! ive had plenty of spider mite problems so ive used many methods of killing those bastards and feel that those three are the best! bongsmilie

No-Pest strips are a toxic chemical, far from a natural solution. (they are meant to keep moths and the like off your clothes, not your food)

(though hemlock, arsenic, and night shades are a natural item, though rather toxic/fatal to humans)

Just food for thought.
