I’ve been treating this plant for what looks like spider mite damage, and just saw this dude cruising around this morning. I didn’t think spider mites were big enough to see with the naked eye. Is this a spider mite? (Pics are max zoom on my aged phone)

This guy is definitely a crawler, no flying, tooling around the leaf edge and at one point on webbing that I couldn’t see until he started trapezing on it.

Maybe he was just making use of someone else’s web🙂. Either way I’ll be be ordering some predators in the near future.
