Mites and how to safely get rid of them

I posted earlier today about my flowering plant leaves with yellowing spots. Thought it was a nutrient issue. After careful studying with magnifying glass I have spider mites or some very tiny bus on the under side of the leaves. What’s the best way to get rid of them? I’m eight weeks into flowering

Natural Guard Safer Soap, then bud wash after harvest if you're so inclined. Next grow, nip 'em before bud so to speak.

.

I bought a pesticide that's both an insecticide and a fungicide. I bought it for Powdery Mildew and it actually works after several applications.

If it works as well as an insecticide I'd give it a try, suppose to "digest" bugs, eggs, shit, etc.

personally i would not fumigate with anything at this point except some ro water on the infected leaves to knock off as many mites as possible. i use organic potassium soap that kills on contact but for bigger grows one would need organic safe and systemic pesticides i heard some names like Avid, Grandevo and what else, but i never had to go there myself. If you think that there are many mites stuck in the buds, you could wash them with h2o2 mild solution at harvest.
