Spider mites??

[Kushage415]

so i noticed some small white bugs crawling around the base of my pots. I went to the store and grabbed some safer houseplant insect killer....it says to spray directly on plant but im not sure if it will harm my plant. Any advice? Am i using the right stuff and should I spray it directly on my plant like its suggesting me to?

use neem oil

purespray is the best i've ever used...it kills eggs and mites in one whack!!!i've been mite free for about a year and a half!!!!neems cool too but it doesn't kill eggs so you're constanly balltling new mites...

its most likely root apids. check for little bugs flying around your soil. use a fish oil organicide not on the plant.
