Spider mites

How to recognise it

Fine pale speckles on leaves, delicate webbing.

What helps

They love dry indoor air: shower the plant, raise humidity, remove affected leaves; predatory mites help.

Often a care issue is behind it (watering, light, placement) – the care check in the app helps narrow it down.
