I just did a huge repot of all of my plants a week ago after months of battling fungus gnats. Everything seems to be cleared up so I splurged and got a Polly and a few other and all looked well…I am checking everything today and I see this. Is this spider mites? I sure hope not but 😩 ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/P9hCTg_BWmtVHVffzlw7n94EwJh7iMoEb7x-Flpqkxs/9xF7_qGhRbq0sptnfu4HVQ.webp?size=large) ## 9개의 댓글 ### Thistle n that님이 2025-07-14에 댓글을 남겼어요. It does look like spider mite unfortunately. You can find pest treatments at the store or you can find recipes online you can mix yourself. I use a mix of water, neem oil, isopropyl alcohol, and peppermint Castile soap and spray liberally and wipe your plant down thoroughly. You can use your shower or sink to spray down the plant to knock off anything you can #### Ashley님이 2025-07-14에 답변했습니다. I’m so upset 😭 this has been such a learning curve! I immediately washed it and sprayed it down heavily with that mixture, except the soap. I had every else on hand. I moved it across the room as well so that it would be alone. So far this seems like the only one that has it so hopefully I caught it fast enough. What do you recommend for treatment schedule? Daily cleaning? Every few days? #### Ashley님이 2025-07-14에 답변했습니다. Also thank you for the help! #### Thistle n that님이 2025-07-14에 답변했습니다. No problem, happy to help! Yes separate it and I would recommend checking it every 4-6 days to ensure they aren’t coming back and treating it almost every 2 weeks. Another really great pesticide to use is systemic granules. It kills everything in the soil and any eggs pest may lay in the tissue of your plant #### Ashley님이 2025-07-15에 답변했습니다. Great! Thank you I have some of that too so I’ll do that today ### Sunny님이 2025-07-15에 댓글을 남겼어요. Spider mites produce a stocking like web on the plant. This could be thrips which are mostly white and very small. The treatment is the same. Use neem oil or an insecticidal soap. I recommend avoiding alcohol sprays that can damage the plant. Isopropyl alcohol is typically used on a cotton swab to dab onto individual mealybugs. #### Ashley님이 2025-07-15에 답변했습니다. Ok good to know. There was some small webbing on it but so far today I don’t see anything. The leaves do look less green today so I’m afraid I’ll loose the plant anyway. #### Sunny님이 2025-07-16에 답변했습니다. Check the roots. I see the yellow sticky in the background. The dying leaf could have root rot. Check for rot on the roots and remove, if any. Let the soil dry out more between watering. #### Ashley님이 2025-07-16에 답변했습니다. Ok thank you, I’ll check that tonight and see how it’s doing --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
