What sorts of plants are they on?
It affects the best strategy.

But ideally for ornamentals you want a long acting systemic miticide
that is compatible with the plants you want to stay alive.

Tweaking the humidity slightly will help.

If you don't care what lives and what dies then a sulphur candle is
pretty good as a total knock down. But it will play havoc with the soft
furnishings. OK in a dormant greenhouse though.

Its a bit too late in the season to do anything effective now.

I found something that looked like a red spider mite, but it was HUGE.
Just under 1cm long, in fact. Not very mite-like, but looked /just/ like a
close up of a tiny one. No idea what it was, unless someone evil genius has
been going round the garden with a huge enlarger gun!
