I use systemic granules and insecticidal spray and neem oil spray, exact ones in pic.

This is what I used (plus beneficial insects at the tail end) to eradicated spider mites at the end of last summer

Nice! I noticed some mites and webs on a couple plants 2-3 weeks ago and got these and now haven’t seen them since! I put the granules in all my plants as a preventative too now as well.

I had success with this mixture in a 16oz spray bottle filled with water. I treated the affected plants once every 5 days for three weeks and they are gone. I also showered the plants off before spraying this.

I have The Plant Bar Co’s Dead AF for spider mites and other bugs. You can also make your own insecticidal spray using a 32oz spray bottle, adding 2 tablespoons-ish of Castille soap (don’t use dish soap!) and 10 drops of peppermint essential oil, and fill the rest with water. It smells great and bugs hate it! If you have neem oil, you can most certainly add that to it but the Castille soap is what kills the bugs. And bugs hate peppermint!
