my entire back yard is infested with mites!
 
I've never seen them this bad. They're all over my lawn, and they're all
over my garden. I just don't think the little bottle of insecticidal
soap that I have is going to cut it this year. What can I do?

Are you talking about spider mites?

Just spraying the yard with cold water from the hose would help. Have
you looked into beneficial insects?
