neem saved me mate, it hits them on so many levels.....i use it on my dog too.....
I had some crazy rash on my neck from too much bleach in the laundry... hit myself with a lil neem oil while I was showering my girls, and the next day my skin was back on top! it was kinda weird...

isn't mother nature great

Yes she is...

The stuff I ended up using ( No Spider Mites ) is all natural and organic, non toxic even if drunk, no fumes, no smell, no after taste or ugly residue...safe to spray until harvest, Does not affect pistols even if accidently directly sprayed...

Ingredients are ..

Rosemary Oil
Cottonseed Oil
Citric acid
Water
Geranium Oil
Citronella Oil


And thats it...

Not only does it kill them on contact it also kills the eggs and larva...

It was way more expensive then the Hotshots No Pest Strip...but I feel so much better knowing I'm using something to kill them that I could make salad dressing out of...not something that might turn my brain into salad dressing.

Nature rules !

Now I feel better and more at peace knowing my product will be organic from start to finish.

any oil will do , personally I prefer to blast the little bastards off with nothing but pure water with one of these....If that doesn't work I'll bust out like a 1/4 teaspoon of purespray green, petroleum oil , very very weak mixture and load it up in the atomist and coat the little bastards, anything you use in late flower is more than likely gonna be nothing but some type of oil to suffocate the little bastards.

funny how the ignorants use chemicals as safe to shallow .... uranium is a 100% natural 100% organic that has nothing to do with weed grow ... ffs my POOPS are 100% natural all organic , i aint gonna put them in my mouth though !

thing before u act !

WHAT EVER U GONNA USE NO MATTER WHAT IT WILL END UP IN UR LUNGS , WATER IS THE ONLY TRULLY SAFE THING THAT UR LUNGS HAVE NP WITH THE TRUTH IS SIMPLE AS THAT , OR DOES THERE ANY PESTICIDE " SAFE TO SHALLOW" "SAFE TO USE ON WEED " ??UH ??? NO ! , ITS ALMOST ALWAYS SAYS " SAFE TO USE .... ON SKINNED FRUITS " , THE PROBLEM WITH DEVIRES FROM AMERICAN PRODUCTS WHERE THEY USE TYPICAL COMERCIAL TRICKS OVER THINGS THEYVE SHOULD BE MORE CAUTIUS

, IT WILL BE VERY STUPID FOR SOMEONE TO USE ANY PESTICIDE IN FLOWER MODE BUT WASHES VEGIES AND FRUITS TO KEEP AWAY PESTICIDES .... DUM AS A FUCK !
AT LEAST IN FRUITS THE CHEMS ARE NOT CONVERTED IN NASTIER CHEMS THROUGH BURNING ....

in addition to the harm that may come to the user by the use of chemicals in their garden, the effects also stretch worldwide. since the "Green Revolution," when chemical fertilizers became widespread in around 1960, we have nearly destroyed most farmland and several lakes. the Salton Sea in California has been completely poisoned by chemical salt buildup, which has killed off nearly all wildlife in and around the lake, leaving nothing more than an obvious man-made odor, with no organic decay, no real life. if these commercial chemical farming techniques continue much longer soon we won't have anywhere safe to grow, and we will continue to lose fresh water sources. i totally agree with you, think before you act.

i was stuck in the toilet and i was a bit frustuated , well not as much but yes its stupid enough to smoke tobaco and talk about lungs , but if that was the case i had to leave my poluted city ... , quit drinking tap water and basically stop living as a citi-zen ...

id say the case is what u can avoid and dont push ur luck just for a little convinience
 
I was even hospitalized for petting a dog who had a flea collar on....went into convulsions and shock just from petting a dog...how sad is that.
The active ingredient in Dog flea & tick collars is called Dichlorvos...It's the same active ingredient in Hot Shot No-Pest strips... you might wanna' stay away from those in that case.
I would hate to see you go into convulsions just from entering yer grow room.

When you said you used alcohol. Did you use rubbing alcohol or isoprophyl alcohol. Also I use 1:1, alcohol to water. It kill mine after two applications. It also said that they donit like cold water. So I put my solution in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. They also don't like high humidity. Good luck.

Look, i am not an expert on spider mites, i would have thought a thousand ladybugs would have slaughtered the spiders, the ladybugs must have been fed just before you got your hands on them, a lady gardener on a normal gardening forum sprays the spider mites with soapy water.
she swears it does nothing to your plants and the spiders run like hell.

or you could buy a smoke pellet and smoke the little blighters to death.

you will need to do that anyway for your next crop.

Another way to keep a bug free garden, get a praying mantis. You can get the eggs at your local hydro store or I'm sure you can find them online for under 20 bucks. About 10-20 of them will hatch when the egg is placed under your light, only one will survive as they will eat one another. One will be left and it will eat any bug that steps foot near your plants. My friend has one in his indoor garden. It's huge and aggressive. No bugs, spider mites, no nothing... I plan to get one at the end of my veg stage just to be safe.
 
organic sprays from hydro stores (stuff with clove oil, neem oil) can help deter spider mites.
Pyrethrum bomb helped but not in my case
best thing was to attack each plant one by one with my house vacuum hose. I wore vinyl gloves and just protected each bud with my hand while i vacuumed the whole plant. Stems, leaves, all of it. I was careful around the bud and focused mainly on the underneath. I did this a few times a week and now no mites! most successful way for me to get rid of the devils and now i will have a good harvest!

I am gonna try the grape juice. Makes since to me.
I am going to spray my buds with rosemary water this eve. Read about useing rosemary oil to kill spider mites and the eggs. Also, Ice water keeps them from multipling and leaving those f--king webs. I use an air compressor with a spray gun to get a super fine mist/fog when useing the alcohol. Anyways, about the Grape Juice ? I am gonna try it.

Didnt even read your first post, a lot of spider mites are super mites and are immune to that kind of stuff. Supposedly if you let 4 cigarettes sit in water for 24 hours you can spray your whole plant with that and it will kill them all. It says online you can do it 6+ weeks into flowering sooooo... I am guessing its safe whenever.
