i might have spider mites on seedlins

please help I checked my 7 and 8 day old seedlings today and I noticed a small spider that looked like a spider mite crawl across the grow room floor. i check all seedling and i was not sure if i see any mites on my seedlings but one of them looked like it had little white dots on one of the leafs I have neem oil please someone tell me what remedy will kill them asap please.
 
Neem will work just fine, just raise the lights or turn them off for about 4-6 hours after you spray so you don't burn the leaves. Dots on leaves = spider mite damage. Best of luck.
thanks mate in terms of turning lights off I am using led lights and also I just turnt ights back on 1 hour ago from there 6 hours of rest what do you think
 
I doubt it was a spider mite.
They are nearly microscopic........I don't think they can be seen crawling on the floor..........you have to use a scope to see them under the leaves.
oh ok mate that's some weight of my shoulders thank you but on the leafs of one of the seedlings it did have the little white dots that's shows spider mite activity at first I fort its maybe just a from where I sprayed mist water over them to try raise humidity and it got burnt but anyway all the rest seem fine I just made a neem oil pesticide and sprayed the one that might have mites i hope it will be ok tomorrow
 
I sprayed one 20 mins ago but left led on was that a bad idea I only left them on because they was already off for 6 hours today as they are on a 18/6 schedule for veg
 
You saw a spider
Spider mites are invisible to the naked eye
ok mate thanks for advice I'd be sure to leave the normal spiders next time I think it might be powdery mildew I'm having problems with the rh it is normally about 50% to 64 but some points during the day the rh can be at 40 % I have two humidifiers on and the ac is running almost 24 hours so I can keep the temp good as I live in a hot Mediterranean country and ideas mate.
