Stopping mites with co2-how can I make it work

Guys

I was told that I can raise my co2 levels in the room to 5000 and this will blow the crawling mites to pieces.
I am 3 weeks away from harvest and have to slow them down.

I have a burner. Have a controller.
But someone just told me I have to raise CO2 in the dark room.
This puzzles me. I cannot rely on controller in the dark.
How can I make it work?

i dont think 5000ppm will do it. Put them in a trashcan with the lid on it drill a hole and run a hose in. mites like it hot so if you could cool the room down that will slow them down.

it doesn't work, you're better off running a sulpher burner during lights off, they hate that. also some no pest strips, they actually work.

I read a report on a trial where the grower increased the co2 level to 10,000 ppm for 24 hours and had 100% die off. Can't remember where I saw it.

CO2 to kill mites

By Ed Rosenthal

Will enough CO2 suffocate mites in my growroom?
If I turn up the CO2 to 1,500-2,000 ppm, will it suffocate the spider mites and kill them? If it won’t, what will?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is used by plants as an ingredient for photosynthesis. Plants combine it with water using light as energy. The result is sugar, which is used to supply the plant with building material and energy. Normally, CO2 is found in the air at rates of 350-400 parts per million (PPM) and climbing. When plants are given bright light they photosynthesize faster in the presence of air enriched with CO2. A typical level for bright rooms is 1,500-2,000 ppm.

CO2 is not a poison gas. We breathe it in every time we inhale and we breathe out a lot more of it when we exhale. When gardeners visit their CO2 enriched gardens they breathe levels five to six times greater than normal.

Mites breathe oxygen. If the CO2 were turned up a lot higher the mites would be able to breathe as long as there was adequate oxygen in the air. If they were placed in an all-CO2 environment where they received no oxygen for a few hours they would probably “hibernate” in some way. They would have enough of a survival rate to continue hassling your plants.

Oxygen-free environments have been used for grain storage with mixed results. They are much more effective in controlling rodents than insects.

There are a lot of approaches to eliminating mites. You can use registered organic pesticides such as Cinnamite, neem oil or other neem oil-based or organic miticides.
