Help i have this new orchid i saved from my aunts house. after i got her i cleaned the roots gave, her new soil and repotted her right away. Everything was going well and i checked up on her every morning but this morning i found this weird white stuff all over the soil , it looks like mini spider webs? I don’t know what to do 😭 i kept her away from my other orchid since i don’t know if it can be passed, what do i do ?

They’re spider mites, eek! I looked it up and it said to treat with a good spray down or cleaning with water. Neem oil is also something people use, same with insecticidal soap.

My prayer plant had those issues. I first took qu-tips soaked in rubbing alcohol and wiped all those bugs and webs off the plant. Then sprayed with Neem oil. She is healthy as can be now. Good luck
