Hey guys, got some clones from a friend a couple weeks ago...guess what. Now all my vegging plants have webs on them with mites. Wtf. Anyways I just hosed them down with some Zero Tolerance...heard it works great and I hope they are right. Questions is, I have some seedlings that sprouted out of the soil a day ago. Can I use some diluted zero tolerance on them and not hurt them? Oh, and can spider mites move from one room to the next without being moved with a plant? In other words should I check my flowering room for them too or do you think the infestation is localized? Thank you!

Yes make sure to do your flower room! ASAP before its too late like for me. I had the exact same problem. Because of dirty people that I thought were professional and ensured me I had nothing to worry about, now I got mites and Iv had them for almost 2yrs now. I wish I never got the ECSD clone. it wasnt even that good! Once they seem to be gone they strike back with vengance. Spider mites can travel pretty far. Heres some info I found on mites by UC davis (http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn7405.html). They can also go in your walls, or molding and stay there till you think they are gone and BOOM they are back, and even worse then before. Good luck! Hopefully you will win the battle because with mites ITS WAR!
Below is a link for natural ways to kill them without using sprays. I will be trying the predator mites soon so stay tuned and I will post my results as soon as I try them.

I will be first releasing 2 Dr Doom foggers then 4-6days later I will release the predators.
