Not sure what it is, but I think I see 8 legs? Any signs of eggs under leaf?

I have little tiny garden spiders I see from time to time, they're reddish orange like that. Get a better look and see what ya see. Scope the under leaves for any eggs. Got a 30x+ scope? Examine all leaves imho to be safe and check all possibilities for bug signs.
I do not have a scope I do have a lot of leaf curl not seeing any holes or eggs but...
I'm thinking 8 legs also
I'd see about getting an id on the bug to be sure of what to tx for. Are there many, or only the one? If a bug and going to treat in general this is what I would use.I'm at 25 in 12/12 am I safe to hit with some insecticidal soap? Lady bugs? Should I lights out and spay with pyrethrum?
What best option
A great resourse and friendly towards our industry.Try and get a better ID on that bug maybe hit up this site for some more info on pest control

All help is appreciated. I am working on a scope. I going to order some Benny bugs to help combat problem aswell.Could be, nasty things. Get yourself a cheap jeweler's scope with up to 70x to 100x magnification. 10 to 15 dollars probably on Amazon. Check undersides of leaves for egg spots, webbing anywhere, white spotting on the leaves is a tell tale sign. Sorry if I'm regurgitating anything already said.

That is what I suspected. I have applied multiple applications of insecticidal soap and pyrethrins spay. I'm losing the battle. I hope I can get them all gone for next run. I have about 15-20 days to go.That sure looks like an adult two spotted spider mite to me. I also see some web in this picture too which kinda helps confirm a bit more. If you are in early flower, you can still use a pyrethrin bomb with no lingering chemicals etc. by harvest. Mites can grow an immunity to insecticidal chemicals so if you hit em, hit em hard and fierce the first time, then switch up insecticidal chemicals for second treatment and so on. You have to stay on top of your applications because the mites have a life cycle that can exceed a single insecticidal application as well.
I can give zero help on fighting bugs, but I can offer this: have you considered hydro? I've ran bubblers for a decade precisely because I can't share living space with pests, so neither should my plants. Home made buckets are cheap and easy to set up, just needing some air pumps and air stones, and grow pebbles that can be used over and over, and the nutes.That is what I suspected.

Should I just chop and clean now?
Any info on tent/room cleaning ?
Bomb the shit out of it and bleach?
I have bought hydroton, net baskets and a couple 27 gal totes. I am slowly getting things together. I should have it ready for my next run. ?I can give zero help on fighting bugs, but I can offer this: have you considered hydro?
