Introducing Predatory mites in week 5 flower

Introducing predatory bugs at week 5 of flower

Will predatory bugs eventually dissipate after a few weeks after dealing with the problem at hand or will I have a new infestation of beneficial bugs? (obviously harmless) but none the less not ideal to have bud riddled with bugs at harvest.

Just for clarification day 1 of week 5 flower.
Planning to do 8 weeks flower and 1 week flush.
Hps lighting
Coco
3 feeds a day run to waste setup
Everything looking healthy and dense and frosty just noticed mostly around lower plants i have silvery/white spots on fan leaves ( suspected thrips )

Any help would be much appreciated cheers

have you used a loupe to look at the bottom of the affected leaves?

I have used a 100-1000x usb microscope and only can find black poop dots and I found 1 or 2 tiny squiggly jumping tiny worm clear looking things I can't find any definitive thrips but all the signs are there.

Nothing on underside of leaves that I can see

I had a bit of spider mite issues earlier, they were pretty easy to detect. @Deadstill tipped me to this product

Amazon.com
