I agree fully with BSD, in my very limited experience with mites I believe they build a resistance quickly. I am currently alternating between 3 products. One is a chilli and garlic spray (2 litres water, 12 small chilli's and four cloves of garlic, some cinnamon powder and a drop of dish soap, simmer in pot 20m and strain) A broad spectrum product containing Thiamethoxam and an oil based product. Best of luck
oh not at all! You can even add some soap to your soil if it starts turning to mud. I just would like to mention that it should NOT have any detergent in it as this WILL fuck a plant up. Also, spray a bit in a area to see if the plant reacts badly to it. mine didn't so I ended up spraying it all over and cut the mite problem down to nearly %10. Also recommended to spray ever 5-6 day's as this is when the the egg's hatch.
How does this work?
Spider mites have soft bodies and the soap seeps through their skin and dries them out!
Yes mites are a pain in the neck to get rid of! I had them infect my plant from the soil or nearby raspberry patch. This summer I will be properly armed to the teeth and will do my best to prevent any bug issues. The issues I had were spider mites and caterpillars. Which reminds me, I need to research on preventative measures!

Well i definitely want to try a few things, currently I'm only spraying them with SNS 217. It works but only for a few days, the spray smells so strong... I'm gonna have to up my game and try the soap and the chili spray!
Thanks for the help guys!
I also have a bad break out of natts, what kills those bad boys.
