Help! My ivy hasn’t been doing super hot, and when I misted it today I noticed tiny webs on it. Is this spider mites? How can I fix it?

That does look like spider mites! Apparently a pretty common pest with Ivy in particular. You’ll want to look for some kind of insecticidal soap spray. I’ll post a pic of what I use but if you are in the US you’ll have more to choose from, I think I’ve seen a lot of Americans post about Dr Bonners? Not sure I’ve got that right 😳

Also if you have other plants check on them - spider mites spread easily!

  Good to know! I do have two (almost dead lol) other plants in that pot(? Hanger? Thing?) so I will check on them. Thank you so much!

Yes! They are the devil. Order some predatorial mites from NaturesGoodGuys.
