I'm seriously about to give up on plants that I have to overwinter inside.

I hear you. I have tried all of the suggestions that have been mentioned above. I do them almost daily espetially in the winter when I am bored and go into the sunroom where I keep my inside for the winter tropicals. It is frustrating. I think I am going to try and store them at absolute minimum temps to slow the mite infestations down. Then maybe I can break up there life cycle up enough to control them atleast during the winter when they are inside.
