Exterminating Spider Mite in Crop Fields

Hi, so we've had spider mites pop up in our crop fields in Eastern Washington roughly 3 years ago in the drought like conditions and they've been popping back up midseason. Does anyone have experience or ideas on how to control the spider mites on a large scale? We tried some methods such as Azamax applications to cull them but to no lasting effect. They roughly kill off all the squash and melon plants so that they don't produce at all or stunt the fruits. They hide under the bit leaves so it's difficult to apply complete miticide coverage and they also overwinter on the squash harvest while pockmarking them with bites and honeydew. Any advice is welcome!
