Spider mites can damage plants by sucking their sap. Here’s how to control them:


1. Water Spray: Regularly spray plants with water to dislodge spider mites.

2. Neem Oil: Apply neem oil to kill spider mites and their eggs.

3. Beneficial Insects: Introduce predatory mites or ladybugs that feed on spider mites.

4. Insecticidal Soap: Use insecticidal soap to treat infested plants.

5. Proper Watering: Keep plants well-watered, as spider mites thrive in dry conditions.

- Increase humidity around plants to deter spider mites.
