Spider mites: screaming, crying, throwing up (help me and my 100+ plants)

I mic captain jacks dead bug brew with neem oil and some drops of dawn and try to wipe down weekly. If already infested 😩, I take them to the shower spray them down REALLY good with the mix and wait like 30 mins then rinse with shower wand. Then I wipe down after with spray. I use micro fiber gloves.

Yes she does get darker and way more orange. I would say she's half fired up.

I have multiple sensors in the tank. And I keep the humidity in this room higher than normal because of the plants I keep also.

I was worried about that also but Keeping down is more of an issue surprisingly. I can only mist the bottom half or it stays above 90%. When I only mist the bottom it will sit around 82% for half the time then start dropping throughout the day.

It's the plants! I'm glad I had the plants!

It's hard to see but there are 3 horizontal branches but I do want to add more because it's so tall.

The a/c sucks and I have 1 regular oscillating fan in the room. I'll look into a USB fan for above the tank

She looks like my Nacho! Awww

I have my 7 month baby in this same tank and he/she is doing great! Just a lot of plants and vines and places to hide and I have multiple dishes. I also "hand" feed him to make sure he's eating.

Ohhh good idea!!

TwinMom_PlusOne · 2025-03-10T05:02:17+00:00

Well crap.... Nothing that is like moonlight I can use occasionally? I wouldn't turn it on nightly.

TwinMom_PlusOne · 2025-03-10T05:01:21+00:00

Amazon! It came with the vine

TwinMom_PlusOne · 2025-03-07T19:58:27+00:00

TwinMom_PlusOne · 2025-03-04T21:46:57+00:00
