i would have a difficult time imagining if you were to eradicate a small mite infestation from some seedlings with a "contact spray" that you wouldn't have to worry about the same mites (potentially some tough resistant/evolved buggers as well) coming back to feast during flowering.
it happens indoors all the time, i can only think it'd be worse outdoors. if you apply them right, these ISO/acid sprays are probably doing a great job killing the existing eggs & adults sure, but they aren't giving the plant lasting resistance to new batches of pests that come along.
i don't mean to downplay their effectiveness at all, because i know plenty of folks turn to them during 12/12 and have success.. but i think the potential user should understand the battles they're facing here.
