I got some kelthane and used it on my kids @2.5 months ago, and the little bastard are still gone!!! I want to thank everyone who made some suggestions.
Our yields are up by 30%, wahooooooooooo!!!!
The only bad thing I've found is that it's kelthane is a discontinued product, and I was able to find a quart, no more available, which is ok because this should last for a very looooooong time!
There was/is a member here Opie Yutts, can do a search for his battle wit 'mites. He SWORE by using pest strips. Said it ridded him of the problem completely and none of his family grew extra fingers or toes:D

I understand that you want to rid yourself of spider mites using only natural methods. That's great, but as far as I know, it will not happen. Not permanantly any way. Believe me, I've tried. They may dissapear for a few days or weeks, but they'll be back.
I'm tired of trying to convince people about this, but you will be battleing them forever unless you agent orange their ass. If you want to rid yourselves of them forever, you can do one of two things, or both. Bomb, or Pest Strip. Both work, pest strip is by far easier, but bomb may be better if you have a big room. Search pest strip, read, employ, relax and watch your pest free plants grow.
People who are too pig-headed and know it all-ish swear that pest strips cannont possibly work. People who spend the $8 and 30 seconds to give it a try now enjoy pest free plants for good.
Good luck. I hate the little bastards. By far the worst plant problem, unless you use toxic chemicals.
Anyone had any luck with "Don't Bug Me" by Foxfarms?
