No no no. Neem oil. To start if not flowering. Sm90 if you still have it. If not look at GWE cures.

Howdy buckets, Use the seven dust only if You are not going to smoke or consume the buds! I have been using the 'sticky yellow' cards to trap any unwanted invaders and have applied Azamax both directly in to the reservoirs and as a foliar spray. It is a plant derived pesticide that interferes with the bug's larval development and is usable up to 24 hours prior to harvest. If You are a soil grower, try covering up the soil in the pots with diatomatious earth to prevent the critters from laying their eggs in the damp soil.

This is what you want for both.

Minute Pirate Bug

https://www.arbico-organics.com/product/minute-pirate-bug-orius-insidiosus-predator

Excellent General Predator in Field Crops and Greenhouses. Minute Pirate Bugs, Orius insidiosus , also known as flower bugs, are one of the most common general predators in field crops. Emerging early in the spring, their diet consists of a variety of small pests. They particularly love to eat thrips and are known to attack the adult thrips; you may even see them from time to time with thrips stuck on their rostrum. Release Orius indoors or out. Minute Pirate Bugs reproduce quickly, completing a total life cycle in just 3-4 weeks, making them effective at handling serious infestations quickly. Adults lay their eggs within available plant tissue. Nymphs emerge after 4-5 days and they become adults in 7-10 days. Minute Pirate Bugs will move efficiently throughout the infested plants, and will continue to kill even when they do not need to eat. Be sure to leave suitable habitat for them to overwinter as they will establish in most locations quite well. Optimum Conditions: 64-82°F, 60% RH Release Rates: For maintenance, release 1 to 2 Orius per plant in greenhouses or 1 to 4 Orius per plant in hot spot areas outdoors. When treating a serious whitefly, aphid, thrips or other pest infestation, we recommend releasing up to 500 Orius per 250 sq. ft. area. For field crops, we recommend releasing between 100 and 2,000 Orius per acre, depending on the level of infestation.

Google a solution of water, hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and dish soap or cooking oil for a spray. I combined one with baking soda and oil with one using hydrogen peroxide to cover bases.

Ladybugs devour mites and aphids on our outdoors landscape garden. Thankfully we haven't had them on cannabis indoors.

Neem oil or natural preditiors such as ladybugs, also seem to like thrips, on my grow.
