*GASP* Noooooo!!
Went to water Barnaby, my English Ivy (who admittedly has been looking a little down in the mouth, so I moved him to where he’d get different light), and discovered… Yep, you guessed it. spider mites. 😱😭🀬
Luckily I’d put him in a low-trafficked room and not too close to other plants. Not totally on his own, but not so close that I’ll lie awake at night worrying about the others in that room. I’m gonna move him yet again and I just doused him with Aunt Fannie’s insect Remedy (because it’s all I have at the moment), but I think I’m gonna bite the bullet and place an order for one of the pricier options (We the Wild, Arbor, or Dead AF, or a combination of the three. LOL).
In any event, positive thoughts and whatnot would be appreciated by both Barnaby and me. πŸ₯°

I’m sorry to hear this! Wishing you all the best in eradicating the pests! ❀️
Willing positive energy your way!!
My reversed spider plant has spider mites I found yesterday & today I’m getting more stuff to get rid of them! So sorry Barnaby has them too! Best of luck to you!
@GoldPoataniwha Oh, noooo!!! I would freak the f@&$ out if my variegated spider Venom got mites!! He’s one of my absolute favorites. Hope you utterly destroy them so that yours can get healthy again!!
@Eelhsa @meme88 Thanks so much; I truly appreciate it! 🫢🏻
Thank you so much! She’s still thriving but I imagine she’d be thriving wayyyy more if she didn’t have themπŸ₯Ί
@GoldPoataniwha No doubt!! I truly can’t stand little beasties in my realm. 😷
