Two weeks of fighting a spider mite outbreak vs just buying ladybugs on day one
Found a nasty spider mite infestation on my 12 tomato plants. Spent 14 days spraying neem oil and wiping leaves every single night. Should I have just ordered ladybugs for $15 from the start or is the chemical route better for large gardens?

Two weeks of wiping leaves like a crazy person, you earned that $15 lesson the hard way. Next time just let the ladybugs do the dirty work while you sit back and laugh.

@bettymurphy I feel you, that leaf wiping grind is brutal.
