Hi Bro, first of all is not a thrips infestation but mites instead. Anyway, spraying with a soap solution can mitigate the issue. Then the best thing to do, preserving smell/flavour, is to harvest and then wash accurately the buds before drying. ✌️

Pirate bugs and lady bugs are really the best way to take care of them without hurting the buds. Both are available cheaply online. Otherwise, a water and alcohol mixture could do it, but you risk bud rot as a consequence. Wish I had more options to offer you.
