Repotted my baby bunny bellies today!!
Was so excited to get her into a more permanent home. The pot seems to be cement but has no drainage hole. Going to have to be careful about watering! But hoping that the cement will absorb some and allow it to evaporate.
ALSO - I believe I am on the tail end of my spider mite infestation but am going to continue treating her to ensure absolutely none are left. The host plant (Berry) seems to be doing much better and is only having about one yellowing leaf per day, compared to the four or five originally.
Does anyone have any preventative measures they take to ensure they don’t have another infestation? I’d love to hear some ideas!

Hi Sofia!
Using a leaf cleaner regularly and not allowing dust to collect on plants both help with spider mite control. I use water, Castile soap and peppermint essential oil in my leaf cleaner because most pests don't like the smell of mint.
