One of the two good sized ficus benjamina trees in my family room has been
infested with some kind of bugs. I'm *fairly* sure it started with spider
mites, assuming these are the ones that leave the fine little webs all over
the place.


If you can get the potted plants into the shower, spray the living
daylights out of them assisted with with a hand-held sprayer to get up
underneath the leaves too. Rinse those nasty bugs down the drain!
