Harkers Mectin is a brilliant product, just a couple of drops in a litre of water, in a spray mister. Mist the room, leave for a couple of days then mist again. It kills mites on contact, but doesn’t affect their eggs, hence misting again a few days later to kill any hatchlings.
If the room is empty of plants, they have no food or breeding grounds, but I would still give it a good spray and clean up before starting again. Then keep a very close eye on any new plants you have in there. You can use Harkers on vegging plants but not flowering as it is also systemic.
