Every day there is new yellowing of leaves. I believe they may have spider mites. I see tiny ants lurking around so something is getting them!  
Does this look like spider mite damage to you? I just gave them both a neem soak. TIA

Those black spots are a fungus

Spider mites weave a blanket of webbing over the damaged area and in the creases between stems and leaves. Looks more like overwatering or a fungus.

Maybe I have both then bc I for sure saw webbing. But the fungus part makes sense, too. Thank you for your input!

Honestly the webs could just be spiders, I have spiders living in my plants I love them!

Same. I love the good ones. I have a little black and white jumping one that lives in my philodendron outside. lol.  
I am so suspicious of everything as I have been battling one pest after the other since May, the worst of it was mealy bugs in all of my outdoor plants.  
I wish there was a better way to identify them. They are so small I can barely see them, if at all.
