It's been around since December. I've tried weekly sprays of pyretriner, yellow sticky traps, Lavender/Peppermint oil vapor mixes, and recently full costings of diatomaceous earth as well.

None of it has worked at eliminating them...

The company I use in the UK is called Bioline and after looking it up it's the same mites that the other commentator's link mentions as being the non fast reproducing ones

That's not necessarily to say avoid the other ones, I didn't know they even existed as an option until just now, so I don't know about their efficacy
