Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide is not labeled to be used inside homes so would not be recommended for clover mites. Talstar is one of the top products for clover mites but will not keep them away or repel them. Unfortunately these pests seem to come back every year once the moisture comes and the weather gets warm, be sure to also treat the yard and at least 5-10 feet out around the foundation. Temprid SC is another option to use. You can also remove all grass and weeds within 18 to 24 inches of your home. As well as put out a band of coarse sand, gravel, or wood chips immediately surrounding the foundation. This will keep clover mites from entering the structure.
Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide does not list cannabis on the label therefore we would not be able to advise on the residual it would leave on cannibas. We recommend contacting Syngenta directly at 866-796-4368.
When applying Avid Miticide 0.15EC in shadehouse and greenhouse uses, applicators and other handlers must wear a dust/mist-filtering NIOSH approved respirator with any R, P, or HE Filter.

Avid is not an organic product. Most organic pesticides and herbicides will have an Organic Certified badge on their labels.
Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide should be applied only to the foliage of plants to be most effective as it is a translaminar product absorbed through the leaves. We are not certain of the effects it would have on fresh cuts like that, so we recommend contacting the manufacturer directly for further information. Syngenta can be reached at 866-796-4368
According to the Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide Product Label regarding PPE (Personal Protective Equipment):
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
• Coveralls over short-sleeved shirt and short pants
• Chemical-resistant gloves – EPA chemical-resistance category B (e.g., barrier laminate or butyl rubber ?14 mils)
• Chemical-resistant footwear plus socks
• Protective eyewear
• Chemical-resistant headgear for overhead exposure.
• Chemical-resistant apron when cleaning equipment, mixing, or loading.
• For shadehouse and greenhouse uses, applicators and other handlers must wear a dust/mist-filtering NIOSH-approved respirator with any R, P, or HE filter.
So you would not need a respirator when spraying outside as you have plenty of regular and fresh air flow.
