Thanks!
Update: 6 Days later, anywhere I see mite egg marks on top of a leaf they are long gone. Let's hope they aren't hiding..

Well, it's two weeks later and I've spotted some eggs&a few live ones on one of my flowering girls. I scouted everything else out really well, and pulled all the leaves I found with eggs. I only found one plant with them, but then I looked in my roommate's veg and he has them. So I'm assuming they could have come from there.
In any case, my mites were bitchslapped but are going to start coming back with a vengeance. I'm getting my AC up and running soon so that will help A LOT I'm sure, it's getting really hot lately.
How far into flower can I use bug bombs and safer's soap???
I need to kill these fucks already. I'm freakin out.

been spying this thread and was feeling pretty stoked/hopeful for you on 27aug phattybudz 
but today it appears you're still battling these mofo's 
sounds like once somebody gets the dreaded borg, you've got'em no matter what you do to eradicate them
ok, still in veg and praying it works
picked up some pure Neem Seed Oil yesterday from the local healthfood store and plan on whacking these bastards with a 1-2-3 punch
they did not have the extract though did have the Neem Seed Oil / Neem Topical Oil
http://www.neemauranaturals.com/
Concentrated, 100% pure virgin cold pressed wildcrafted Neem Oil has been found useful for a number of skin and scalp concerns. We import the finest quality neem oil with a measured azadirachtin content in excess of 1500 ppm. It can be used either full strength or added to shampoo, lotions or creams to enhance the neem action on the skin. Note that pure Neem oil has a distinctive odor, which causes many to prefer our cream or lotion as the best way to apply neem to the skin.
mixed properly, would dipping the plants be more effective than spraying ???
after the dip, plan on spraying them again and will repeat process 3times over 10day period
here's the recipe we'll be using
_____
Things You'll Need:
* Neem Oil
* Castile or mild liquid soap
* Container
* Warm water
* Spray bottle
Step 1
~~Purchase Good Quality Neem Oil~~
Most Neem Oil is good quality but check the label to see what has been added to it as some have been diluted more than others. You can find it in most health stores as Neem Oil or Neem Leaf extract and it should be organic.
Step 2
~~Make a Pesticide~~
You will want to a container big enough to hold two quarts of warm water to mix it in. Add ½ teaspoon of a mild liquid soap like Castile and mix it up and then add ½ ounce of Neem Oil slowly into the water while stirring it or slightly shake it up. Now pour some into an old, clean spray bottle of some type or you can buy one.
You can double this recipe but it should be used within 8 hours or it will lose its potency.
Step 3
~~Label the Solution for Safety~~
Even though Neem Oil is fairly safe, it could be mistaken for a drink by someone so you should always mark homemade solutions in big letters on the container with a permanent marker.
Keep it high up or in a locked cupboard where children can’t reach it.
Step 4
~~Spray the Plants~~
Spray the all of the leaves with your homemade pesticide on the top and bottom and saturate the soil with it, too. Always spray early in the morning or early evening to avoid scaring off the good bugs and scorching the plant in the hot sun.
Make sure to shake it while spraying to keep it mixed well and repeat spraying them once a week or more if it rains.
It will not instantly kill the insects until they bite into the leaf but it will instantly repel them with its strong smell.
Neem Oil pesticide has been known to kill and control aphids, moth larvae, spider mites, whiteflies, and Japanese beetles. It will not harm insects that do not chew the leaves like butterflies, ladybugs and bees.

I have tried neem oil out the ass, it has not worked. Control maybe, eradication no.
I may have to stop growing for a month+ in order for them to just die off. That would mean killing off all my clones&genetics, and no meds. That can't happen.
Maybe I will be fighting them until I move to a new location when/where I can start over from seed after a while.....
Fuct though.

I shut down 9 weeks ago because of the bastards. I took a hit on my crop which was awful. I bombed for two weeks, cleaned the room and equipment, the walls and floors. Then I took 7 mothers and started cuts and sprayed the cuts (once rooted) with avid. I am now starting week 2 of flower! NO MORE MITES! 
Good luck man.
