My frangipani has been struggling for awhile. I believe it has had spider mites. I’ve tried fungicide, repotting and rubbing alcohol but nothing has worked. Any suggestions? (Bad pics, I know. My camera wouldn’t focus.)

If it has spider mites there should be very tiny webs in little places, what I did was gently wash it off and isolate it 👍

Did you just use water to wash it off? Do you mean to move it away from my other plants? Thanks for the help!

#### Vivienne respondió el 2024-03-26

Yes move it away and very, very gently wash with water make sure every web is gone

Try neem oil. It may not be spider mites. You can get dry neem powder or the oil and mix a solution. Apply it to the soil and plant stem.

But first you need to remove any pest you see. Try using scotch tape to pick off any little bugs.

Good luck!
