It is spider mites. Get rubbing alcohol and a cotton ball and wipe off every inch of the plant. Then spray it down really good to make sure you got all of them off. For areas hard to get to use a q-tip. Then spray plant with neem oil. Clean front and back of the stems. Check your other plants. Keep this plant isolated..

0 Mi piacewhat do spider mites do exactly?
0 Mi piaceThey suck the cells out the leaves which causes leaf drop and if not treated the plant will die
2 Mi piaceI also like to use Captain jacks insecticidal soap spray to wipe all the leaves after I rinse the plant down well.

1 mi piaceI gave up on neem oil for succulents after it damaged a couple. I use insecticidal soap. Making sure entire plant is covered. Let it dry in a shady spot. I don’t bother with picking off the individual spiders. The spray will kill them. Then respray the plant about every three days for three weeks. And check nearby plants.
