Yikes! Spider mite infestation

That’s a major infestation of spider mites that have been growing awhile. Quickly isolate the plant. I rarely recommend this, but, I would cut the worse stems since the damages are wide spread. The damaged parts won’t go green again. You should determine if there are enough branches worth saving. It will take multiple applications of neem oil, soapy water or rubbing alcohol over several weeks to get rid of them. Plus, they can still return if you don’t treat all the surrounding plants and area.

I recommend you toss it and start fresh if there is no sentimental value. Good luck 🍀🍀🍀

I have major beef with palms because of this. Once you see the mites and damage they caused, it’s usually too late. If you do end up getting another palm, I would treat it for spider mites immediately just to be on the safe side.

That’s a huge spider mite infestation. At this point I would just throw it out and get a new palm, that is going to be a massive task to save it at this point
