Does my monstera I just got have Thrips? I’m new to plants and the nursery I got her from said how healthy she was. She used to have spider mites and they got rid of them but they had her for 8 months. She looked fine to me but I just brought her home yesterday and wiped her leaves down today and saw these white things on some leaves. They look like fluffy white spider webs in a way but I sprayed it and wiped it down with neem oil wipes. Any help would be appreciated
I think that Thripp’s are more beige or brown looking. I’m wondering if this still has spider mites and needs to be treated like they are spider mites. Good luck with it.

I dont think thats thrips! Im not sure spider mites either??.. looks more like a residue or powder from something. Give her a good wipe down and spray her with 70% alcohol when lights are out just in case.

That is powdered mildew. Very common on plants like that. Use Neem Oil and spray it on the plant. After that, it should get better soon.
