I used a product called AVID, it killed all the little bastards DEAD!

I got at my local hydro shop, but it was in a unlabeled bottle. I think in some areas you have to have a license.

spray with water every 2 days and wipe off I have 10 days left and have been doing this for the last 5 days now! not getting rid of them but keeping them in check for the final week. Dont use ANY pesticides, they can and most likley will be absorbed by your buds.

Put 1 drop of dish soap in your water before spraying. I havent seen any webs yet, so this is why Im advising you t do this. I had a few webs starting out and none that I can find now

good luck!!

I had the same problem during harvest and used to wash em in bathtub. Now I use Floramite. It kills the mites and eggs within 3 days. This shit costs like 300 a quart but I found ounce bottles for like 20.00 on ebay. Shit I get 24 gals of spray from 1oz of floramite. So next time or on yer veg now use it. Residual effect of 28 days. I havnt seen a mite since i used this stuff. Its like the ultimate lifesaver there is for mite infestation. Just type floramite in ebays search bar. Good luck with yer girls bro.
