In Flower with a few Mites WHAT CAN I SPRAY?

If you can find it locally this is the stuff! It is called MIGHTY WASH. http://www.horticulturesource.com/mighty-wash-quart-p9608/?osCsid=c24c2389598fa7aa1d241babfebae33f

supposedly safe up to harvest. It's ingredient list is something like 99% pure ionized water. It is a frequencey treated water with a minimal ammount of pyretherin in it. I have watched under a 25x scope just seconds after application and those little bastards die very quickly. I have found that a couple of follow up treatments about a week apart will make your infestation a non issue.

I like to put neem oil on the outside of my buckets now, because I had a bad issue with those little shits. It doesn't work 100 percent, but it does works as a natural pesticide.

If this stuff works get it now! You need a knock down killer for these guys and you need to use it every 5 to 7 days for a total of 3 times, that's the breeding cycle. Once you attack them they go into breeding mode, get a 10 to 30 magnifier so you can spot the bastards early.

Neem is not a knock down killer but is a very effective preventive measure and should be started when plants are put into veg pots. Don't forget to spray the soil well also. Neem is great for the plant and discourages most of the bad bugs from staying around because the would rather die than eat neem. If they do it sterilizes them.

Isolate the plant from the others if you can and make sure it is always the last plant you work on so you don't transport the bugs to the other plants.

These little fuckers should be terminated. they will ruin your hard work. All else fails get some mite aside, Avid is safe up till a week before harvest, read the whimis sheet.

Hot Shot - No Pest Strips. Get em at most hardware stores or Walmart for around $8
It's like a bug-toxic air freshener.
It ended my year-long mite battle in 2 days.

Personally, I wouldn't use hotshot no pest strips that far into flower - it leaves a residue, and they say on the package to not use them where food is stored.

You can mix isopropyl alcohol and water (50/50) and spray that on the leaves. I've heard that it's not good to get too much on the buds though. It's not that it would cause mold or anything (because it evaporates very fast) but I think it might sort of dissolve resins or something like that (?). It does kill mites right away though, so you could use it to at least keep them at bay some.
 
No, they do not get shipped with water. In this industry, all flowers are not shipped with water when you purchase from farms direct and growers. This is the same condition and form that all florist and wholesalers receive flowers from the growers. The flowers are all hydrated at farm level, condition with a special process to leave the water inside the stem. All flowers are then placed in special coolers at 32 degrees when transported. The coolers have a special humidifier system.

Still having my problem with mites please this is my last efforts, there infesting i need help
Dr Doom fogger, set it off in the room and 1-3 hours later(depending on room size) you can re-enter the room without any issues, its made from chrysanthemum extract. It does kill them but not their eggs. 12 days later bomb again, one fogger does many square feet , I've got a small room and had a tiny mite problem so I defeated the locking mech on the fogger and just sprayed what I needed by hand and left the room, haven't seen a mite since.

I wash my op with liquid raid for crawling insects. It has a residue effect that lasts several weeks. I only spray my plants with balanced water or res water. I clean their webs off with a soft paintbrush before I blast them off the plants with the water sprayer. I either clean or remove infected fanleaves, depending on the degree of infection. Put reflective plastic under your plants. Mite eggs are sensitive to light.
