well,you CAN eradicate spider mites completely, and keep them gone. I know everyone wants something omri listed, but let's use common sense and think about it for a minute. I use a miticide when and if I ever get mites, and I only get them fly-ins outdoors, and indoors if I introduce a clone I picked up somewhere and put in my room that had mites. Now, granted, you don't want to do this to a flowering plant, so if your already in bloom, you gotta a battle on your hands.
But I spray with my miticide, yes, it's poison, to the plants whilre they are still small and not flowering. The spray I use is Avid, and it has a very short residual, meaning it doesn't last long at all. You could test the plant 10 days after spraying and find NO residue of poison on the plant at all. It's not systemic, so it doesn't enter the plants internally either. Now, even if it did stay a while, you only smoke the buds and the froty leaves that aren't even on the plant yet when you sprayed it.
1 shot with Avid and your mites and eggs are dead and gone forever, and you'll be a happy grower again!!
And before anyone jumps on me hollering 'GO GREEN" make sure your not growing with 1000 watt light bulbs befiore you holler that shit at me!! haha
There are actually poisons out there that are basically very safe to use and very very effective. I'm against unnatural usage of anything, but we all bend the rules a littel. It just makes more sense to me to use 1 gallon of fixed spray containing 1o ml of poison 1 time, than spraying neem oil, or azatrol, or anything else repeatedly, over qnd over and over.
And BTW , the bombs work good, but they;ll burn your leaves if your not careful.
