They are tough. I am assuming that you are reffering to a greenhouse situation. Because in nature, these little pests are controlled by mite predators, which are mites themselves. Indoors, it's a little more difficult and sometimes if it's really bad, you have to dump everything and sanitize and just start over.
First off, sanitation is paramount. Don't let anybody bring something over as a gift. Don't bring in anything in from a discount store unless you know it is bug free. If possible, grow everything from seed or at least bug-free cuttings.
If it's too late for that, then try soap solution sprays. Fog a solution of say 10% Dawn onto the plants and make sure to get 100% coverage. Repeat every two to three days because new eggs will be hatching out and the spray doesn't affect the eggs. Rinse and repeat. It may take two months or more.
If you try to use insecticides, you will kill any mite predators and the red mites will develope a resistance to the pesticide and you can't win that one.
If it's really bad, just start over. It will save you time.
Yes, spider mites can be white in color.
Dunno!! A bit of a random question.... Try a bit of man power!! :D

humans do not get ear mites only animals do.
They could be spider mites or maybe clover mites
No. Mites are arachnids, and so are related to spiders, but they are not actually spiders.
sure can
humans do not get ear mites only animals do.
No, spider mites are not at all dangerous to humans. They do not bite humans either. The spider mites will not infest a home either.
sounds like spider mites.... watering the soil will help rid them
