As if my spider mite infestation isn’t enough, I caught this critter red-handed! 😫 anyone know what this is? And can I kill it with alcohol/Dawn soap/water mix?

Definitely spray it

I've used 75% isopropyl alcohol and 25% water. I sprayed it 3 times a day for 3 days and the spider mites went away

Does this work for thrips too? I have both on some of my outdoor plants and I have no way to quarantine 😭😭😭

Umm I can't be 100% sure since none of my plants have had thrips but I'm pretty sure if you added dish soap to the mixture or did just a soapy water mixture it would help
