Is there webbing?

#### Lyn respondió el 2025-10-23

There’s one! That’s what I saw and now I’m freaked out…

I get a flashlight and look on the undersides on the plant. If you see white dots moving around, you’ve got them. I use predatory mite sachets it’s the most effective

Ok thank you so much! I’ll add it to my cart right now!

I have a headlamp that I have specifically for looking at my plants lol. For me I look for the webbing going from the leaf to the stem and also the little white dots. Hopefully you aren’t a victim of them cause they suck to get rid of. To get rid of them I used a little dish soap and rubbing alcohol in a bowl of water to wipe down initially but you have to be vigilant and check back in frequently so I’ll go in with neem oil after the first wipe down
