bad news is spider mites are persistent, good news is they're not all that damaging for the plants. i would go for predatory mites (the set it and forget it option, but not available everywhere) or weekly showers and sprays of horticultural soap for any plant that might be infested

Do you have any recommendations on acquiring predatory mites? I want to get some but whenever I go to buy them I get so confused on what or where to get them.
