Spider mites and bud washing then hang dry

So it’s at the end of my cycle and I’m been harvesting.When I can I had spider mites?I’ve used predatory mites to try to get rid of him.It didn’t work this time. I did knock the population down very heavy.I’ve harvested half of my crop and i’m about To do the other.
Half I spray them with the hose and then do a peroxide wash and hang them. I’ve knocked the population down tremendously because I noticed some going to the top of the branches when I hang them and there’s not tjat many. I guess my question is , are these spider mites going to Infest my house after this. I have released thousands of predatory mites also , and I have a smaller tent with a couple plans that Have had no mites on them the entire time. Also does the peroxide rents help to kill them anyway or their eggs

Peroxide bud wash is your best bet. If you still have live ones, up the strength and increase the soak time. Won’t hurt plant material at all. Peroxide will kill eggs. Unless you track mites/eggs in to your other grow space you likely will be fine. But pay attention to it.

Thanks. Not my first rodeo. Just first time they Damn near took over. I still have the upper hand. Theyre just such a pain. Yes they have not spread to my other plants in a separate tent. I have predatory mites everywher lol. Even in my wash buckets i see both spider mites and predatory mites climbing out. I sire hope it kills the eggs. I olny do about a 6 second dip in each bucket
