Have any of you used this for killing spider mites. My partner had an infestation so I’ve extra cautious. I bought this & lacewing eggs which I sprinkled on the top of my soil. Would you all use these for prevention or...?

The Spider Mite is a crop killer. In case of a beginning of an invasion it’s going to be a serious battle. I would recommend SNS 217 from Sierra Natural Science. In prevention, you can keep your RH around 60% until week 4 of flowering, they can’t breathe in high levels of RH. Spray the plants with water once a week until week 3 of flowering, to give them a heavy cleaning rain. And finally, keep your plants strong and healthy, spider mites tend to go for the weak plants first to set up a first nest and prepare for invading the entire crop. They won’t start an invasion on a strong and healthy plant.

No idea what that is and I can't find easily accessible info about ingredients so I'd not ever use it. It might be good, it might not. I would never bother.
