Spider Mites on Mints ?


Hello all,
 
Is there an organic solution to spider mites - I think that is what has invaded my mints in pots and perhaps my lemon balm in the ground.  One mint looks like it is completely gone and the other three are suffering badly.  Since I use these plants in cooking, I don't want to use any pesticides.  I tried cutting them back and watering well but the mites just keep multiplying.  Maybe I should move the pots to a shadier location, they are now in full sun and earlier in the year they looked so good.  I was so looking forward to having some minted lemonade on one of these hot afternoons, but now I have no mint to speak of.
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
