Since I first read your post, found an article on mite control. Neem oil is fine, just don't use too much. Also, Once the Grow Area is cleaned, the mite still infest because they ride in from outside on your clothes, shoes, and pets bring them in also. For a complete control, spray Liquid Seaweed every 7 to 10 days, and that will keep you mite free... in the future.
