I don’t think my pictures did the critters justice but does anyone know what they might be?? Might first thought is to wipe neem oil on the leaves. Would that kill pests on leaves? ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/fNNEhrbV2gUvuwbi2sRUYVFufs3BoKT0bbvkFqjcSSc/2xdG-g7MSTO4lkwE_0iedg.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/fNNEhrbV2gUvuwbi2sRUYVFufs3BoKT0bbvkFqjcSSc/Rb73YgW_S3aAR1HM3W2Oyw.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/fNNEhrbV2gUvuwbi2sRUYVFufs3BoKT0bbvkFqjcSSc/zjfhX5H4Qfu_sdyTpfwTbQ.webp?size=large) ## 10개의 댓글 ### Soup님이 2024-08-31에 댓글을 남겼어요. Most likely some sort of spider mite, seems like they’ve been there a while by the looking at their numbers, is there no damage at all? #### Kirsten님이 2024-08-31에 답변했습니다. The only damage I noticed recently was a few pale spots ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/fNNEhrbV2gUvuwbi2sRUYVFufs3BoKT0bbvkFqjcSSc/AVzHCTcSTxSpl5BH5Rpr4w.webp?size=large) #### Soup님이 2024-08-31에 답변했습니다. That doesn’t really look like spider mite damage, spider mite damage is like a bunch of little yellow dots so I’m not sure if they are harmful as there can be beneficial spider mites which eat thrips and even the “bad” spider mites however I would still wipe them off ### Kirsten님이 2024-08-31에 댓글을 남겼어요. I just sprayed the leaves with insecticidal soap. Any other suggestions? I’ve only ever dealt with fungus gnats so this is new to me #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-31에 답변했습니다. move this away from your other plants and keep treating every couple of days until they’re gone. if this is spidermites (i think it is, their damage isn’t limited to the dots Soup mentioned) know that they lay eggs inder the surface of the leaves so you’ll want to keep treating until you stop seeing them #### Kirsten님이 2024-08-31에 답변했습니다. I have isolated the plant in my spare room I don’t really use. I sprayed insecticidal soap on top and bottoms of leaves. I see less of them moving now but still saw one real quick. Do I keep using this spray or should I use neem oil or anything else? Should I only spray once a day or can I attack as many times as I want? Lol #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-31에 답변했습니다. I would treat every other day until you stop seeing them — keep using what you’ve got, it should do the trick you just have to stay consistent #### ViolentPixie님이 2024-08-31에 답변했습니다. I like to use a lint roller #### eatyacarbs님이 2024-08-31에 답변했습니다. haven’t heard this before! makes sense! ### Michellerbeller님이 2025-09-19에 댓글을 남겼어요. @violent pixie-🙌 love that! --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
