Saw my plants were doing poorly, discovered the mites. Pruned the infested leaves and discarded in the trash. Sprayed with oil and hope for the best.

Yea I had that problem in the greenhouse. brought them in from a plant from a local nursery ( never went back there again). I used a product called Safer. Sprayed it on all the plants. Worked. Its an organic pest spray

I saw some kind of tiny critter on my cherry tomatoes and used diatomaceous earth on them. It worked too
 
I am using Neem Oil in a hand pump spray and the nozzle inverts so that I can spray under the leaves. Because of having had cancer I have to watch myself around chemicals.

Safer might be ok with you. It is basically a soap that coats the insect.
