mites

Good thing I looked closer at my Croton today, which I've been thinking looks gorgeous.
But there's small yellow spots on the leaves, and underneath small white and red dots- mites, ugh. I wiped it all down and will be keeping a close eye, it might need spraying. The smaller piece that had roots but no new leaves yet was in worse shape, so I threw that one out and cleaned its SIP container.
I have looked carefully at all the other plants in the house but find no more sign of mites.
