You can’t easily manage hemp russet mite (HRM) because you can’t see it without magnification.

Males are notably smaller and darker compared to females. Well known for their effectiveness in preying upon two-spotted spider mites, Neoseiulus californicus is noted for their ability to endure high temperatures and humidity levels. They sustain themselves by feeding on pollen during periods of low pest populations. Females deposit oval-shaped, translucent eggs beneath leaves and in close proximity to pest concentrations. Within 2-4 days, these eggs hatch into larvae equipped with three pairs of legs, poised to consume spider mite eggs. Progressing through two nymphal stages, they gradually transition to targeting larger-sized spider mite nymphs until reaching adulthood.
