# I sprayed my little Calathea with neem about five days ago, because…

_Gepostet von Lynda am 2024-11-23_

I sprayed my little Calathea with neem about five days ago, because she had spider mites. This is what the backs of her leaves look like now; they’re a little bit less white than they were before she was sprayed. How do I know when spider mites are dead? Is the white coloration permanent? I’m unsure as to what she should look like when spider mites are gone, and how many times she should be sprayed with neem. TIA… 🤗💚🪴
