    Mix Unscented Castile soap and water(you can Google the ratios but I just guess) , spray it on the leaves every couple days for a few weeks and spider mites be gone! And it’s very gentle so you can keep a regular treatment for you plant area

    OMG ME TOO just fought off thrips and now my first experience with spider mites. May I recommend this video, it comes highly acclaimed on Reddit and is very clear and informative! (Go to YouTube and at the end of the link add /watch?v=PJDLK7Tc8q0 …sorry I can’t paste links here but the video is How To Kill Spider Mites On Houseplants by Heart Shaped Leaves)
