Tetranychid mite (Spider Mite)

Commonly found on the undersides of leaves of indoor and outdoor plants, especially in warm and dry conditions

They feed on the cell contents (sap) of plants, causing stippling or yellowing of the foliage

They often spin fine silk webs for protection. They reproduce very quickly, with females laying several eggs per day

They are major agricultural and garden pests that can cause significant damage to plants; they do not pose a direct risk to humans
