Mites in Flower- Pyrethrum Bomb Safe? Advice needed

I have a mite issue and I have tried many different options up to now without good results.

I have a perpetual grow setup so I have plants anywhere from 2 weeks in to two weeks from completion. I am concerned about using chemicals while in flowering.

Yes I keep it very clean. Vacuum and bleach constantly....Neem and Azimax have been part of the regiment as well in veg. They help but dont eliminate the problem. Also...Hepa filter on the intake. No pets. Temp could be more ideal but hey its August....

I have been very hesitant to use these in flower as well.

I am wondering if it safe to use a Pyrethrum bomb while in flower???? Specifically Doktor Doom.



Most of the literature on Pyrenthrum states it is safe to use up to the last week of flowering.

I wanted to see if this was indeed correct?

Is it safe or unsafe to use?

Or just affect taste?

It seems there are many differing opinions on this matter. Im looking for a solid answer.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers!,

I say too far in to do anything. Unless a water cure is in your future. I had to smoke them little poppers before it wasnt that bad till you heard them pop.
