Shitter wanderinB I've heard of the chillie one too that 84 mentioned.
Try and get seriously hot ones though the spicier the better.
From what I've seen tho the Provado Jimmi suggests works best.
Could try getting ladybirds or the right nemotodes if you are far into flower.
Hope you kill the little fuckers off mate. Best of luck.
Provado is canny for everything but mites!

Question for you @jimmi2scoops and @The Dude Abides @duke , do you use any soap in your Harkers mix? I've just been mixing it with water and now Im wondering (after watching that vid) whether the stuff is just not sticking to the little fuckers..

systemics not much good except commercial ones now no longer sold in sufficient strength to the public a contact would be better with a wetting agent a few drops of original fairy liquid provado works for most sap suckers the one im using is bug clear systemic and contact in one so far not impressed.though saying that my plant was outdoors so had/has all manner of bug life a good number of them rsm but so far in small numbers im hoping they stay that way,you can make the enviroment less inviting by really blasting the plants with as much fast moving air as possible,they are a fecking pest and a half and changing all the time mites and the like will be here long after we the human race are extinct,peace

Iv`e never used harkers, but i use a drop of washing up liquid to a liter of any foliar mix i use, it just helps the stuff stick around longer, not only that if my Dad used owt for bugs on his toms it was soapy water and he swore by that alone.

The alkali in the soap stops them breathing properly I think jimbo.
My old granda used the dishwater on his veggies when he had pests
The greenhouse always did have a washing up liquid, well fairy smell to it.
But it always was stocked come august september time with toms

I`m pretty sure it kills red spidermites, fuck knows what they are on cannabis like, but if iv`e ever seen any sign of bugs in veg on my plants no matter what they are, one spray and i never suffer bugs the rest of the grow.

Don't think it does Jimmi, insects only I reckon.
I've still got them WB, I used SB Plant Invigorator which slowed them up a bit.
Then I used some organic French stuff for mites, a bit like neem oil I think, this also knocked them back a bit.
Now I've got them on all my plants, indoor and out (tomatoes and chillies as well).
They look the same as your pic earlier, a new tougher species perhaps?
Hope the new Harkers works for you amigo, I'm just gonna smoke mine.
All good things

The very first bottle of Provado that I bought had a mite on the bottle, along with pics of all the other bugs it killed. Every bottle since then has been the same but without the mite pic.
Who wants to bet that the fuckers noticed that canna growers were using it and decided to make an all new expensive product for us?
