I hope you are able to isolate it so it doesnt get others sick 😭 but there is hope. I used neem oil every other week on sick plants and it helps. It is just a strong chemical tho, im sure there is more natural ways that i dont know about

I’m sorry😭 wash her off best you can, I hear insecticidal soap spray is great for spider mights and safe for your plants. I’ve won the battle a good few times.
