Are you spraying the 3 in 1? I dumped it on the roots as directed and the plants came back and leafed out...only to get mites again a month later. This is the 3rd round and I see on the bottle "no need to spray," but I read here you spray. I realllllly want to spray if it will kill these buggers. I want to see their teeny tiny little bodies curl up, writhe in pain, and cough a couple of times before they kick off.... Now they're going after the colocasias. Help!!!!

Well, I helped myself.... Moved all the potted brugs away from the pond and into the beds with other brugs. Mixed up some 3 in 1 and sprayed and sprayed. Couldn't find my loupe, so I just had to imagine all those mites gasping their last breaths. Before I clean up, I'm still going to water in some of the 3in1 around the biggest brugs. What doesn't kill them (or me), will make 'em better...I hope.
