Can I use Neem Oil
Not on flower.
If you are ready to harvest,you can wash buds after harvest with lemon juice and baking soda

Captain Jacks Dead Bug Juice Concentrate. Mix at 1.5x strength. It’s safe thru to harvest. Definitely want to do a bud wash. Neem oil is a nono in flower as the plant will absorb it and make for bad smoke.

A.K.A the Borg. I did battle with them before.
This and maybe look for an insecticidal soap that is safe up to harvest. “Garden Safe” brand is organic and safe to use on edibles up to day of harvest. 
You will need to sterilize your grow area also. Those little buggers are relentless and will re-appear when you least expect it.

I always budwash, even with an indoor grow. You’ll be surprised at what comes out. If you are gentle, you shouldn’t knock very many trichomes off at all… really…

Call an exorcist. Those demons come straight from hell. And definitely do a bud wash.

Once you wash it, hang it somewhere away from your grow and definitely not in ur home as the wash does not kill them all.

If the wash doesn’t kill or evac the bastards, what does at this stage? Do they die in the drying/curing process?

No, they crawl in your living room, up your recliner and in your hair. In addition the eggs hatch every three days. They are very tough to eliminate.
Your too close to harvest I think to do anything, make you a bud wash and put a brick on top of the weed in the bucket to hold the bastards under water to try and drown them for about 7 minutes.
After harvest, bomb the room, spray the room and vacuum the floor. Empty vac far away from grow room.
Purchase a spray like captain jacks mite spray. It contains cottonseed oil which seems to at least slow them down.
Decrease grow room temps to 72 degrees in daylight, and 62 at night untill harvest as the cooler temps slow them up.
Remove all webbing, give your plants a fine spray of water at night and flip a flashlight on to see the webbing and the heaviest concentration of mites.
Space plants out where they don’t touch.
Buy predator mites next round as that is really the only good solution.
Good luck, fighting some myself.

I used a product called organishield.
$8 for a bottle that makes a gallon. Safe to spray daily and in flower. It cleared my infestation up quickly (we are talking I had webs!).
Insects do not build up a tolerance to it either.
Good luck to you!

Lady bugs eat spider mites and not your plants.

Yes but when they are done and have no more food source they leave… no place to leave to in a tent so they’ll just die
