I have a new Ficus Ginseng. I potted it using 名媛直播 Empire bought soil and it went well. Now I notice round holes. I also notice some holes that look like they will develop. I notice something that looks white to grey under one leaf. It moves and is nearly microscopic. I have attached photos. I presume mites. How do I treat?

Hey, yes, those are spider mites, I don't kind of treat them, I just kill them with one aplication of insecticide when needed and that's it, and only if that's an infestation, because my trees are all outside, and there are predators for them, there was only a few cases that I had to act.

Trees inside are more likely to suffer with things like that.
Like the holes on the leaves for example, there are fungal issues that does that, but there's also animals that just eat the leaves and do that, so it's hard to tell.
However if the plant is growing healthy, and it's just a few leaves, I wouldn't even mind.
