I don’t know how to get rid of these pest that keep showing up on my dieffenbachia, so I’m open to suggestions. I have been cleaning the leaves weekly with neem oil. I made sure that when I saw the problem to repot it to get rid of the old soil and wash the plant and its roots. But the pest still keeps coming back

Maybe thrips?

Try dunking the whole plant in lukewarm water
