Predator mites won't eliminate the harmful mites, they will just control them. They create a balance as they do in nature. Try lady bugs they'll kill everything. But be prepared for them to be flying around your house lol

Les ultrasons ne fonctionneront pas je ne sais même pas si ils peuvent les entendre. Je te conseillerais une recette simple huile de neem, savon noir type savon de marseille si tu es à la deuxième semaine ça ne posera pas de problème. Un traitement par semaine jusqu'à la 4 ème semaine te permettrait de les éliminer. Si jamais tu vois qu'il y en a à la fin tu pourras toujours laver tes plantes au moment de la récolte. Il me semble mais peut être que je me trompe, les araignées apparaissent quand l air est trop sec.

I've got a couple of thrips infestations since I started growing and one of them completly destroyed one cultivation cycle. I tried several methods (neem oil and different kind of pesticide) but th ONLY ONE that really worked was the SPINOSAD ! Therefore make an effort to keep always your environement clean and well ventilated.

HI buddy erm I would look into lady birds buddy as they can live upto 2 years if you create a little home for them with some food they will soon sort it out im sure :) im not sure about ultrasonic i know you can get products like hydoguard that are suppose to kill them off. neam oil is always an option. i would not advise pestasides for obvious reasons :)
