"Petroleum oil provides some ovicidal activity against spider mite eggs. None of the other miticides provide ovicidal activity"
How come I haven't heard about this petroleum oil? Neem Oil seems to be very popular but according to the above statement, it won't kill the eggs(which is the biggest problem). So, I purchased All Seasons Spray Oil (98% petroleum oil) and a trusty no pest strip. My ladies were 2 weeks into flower and had a pretty bad infestation. Sprayed the undersides of the leaves and the main stem heavily, tossed in the no pest strip(to kill the hatched mites). The next day I couldn't find any mites! eureka! I left the no pest strip in for a few more days, then I put it in a zip lock bag to save potency. If I see anymore mites I will toss it back in. It has been two weeks since, still no mites! So I assume this petroleum oil worked... I use my 100x microscope to examine the leaves and all that remains are the dead eggs. well, I assume there dead. its only $13 at Home Depot. Don't use it if your temps are 94 or above(which they shouldn't be ha ha). I hope I helped save some bomb weed!

since you are currently flowering i would not spray them at night to avoid mold. When the plants wake up is a fine time. be sure to shake the bottle up in between every few sprays. GOOD LUCK!
