Red spider mites almost 7 years ago.
How do I get rid of it? almost 7 years ago.
First make proper identification of the pest. Make sure they are red spider mites. If so, I would first spray the plants generously with water to remove what I could. 1 tea spoon baby shampoo and 1 tea spoon vegetable oil to 1 gallon water. Spray plant. Try to introduce predators to garden as well. Ladybugs are excellent for spidermites, aphids, and whiteflys almost 7 years ago.
I believe it could be some sort of flea beetle....Try this homemade spray to control flea beetles: 2 parts rubbing alcohol, 5 parts water, and 1 tablespoon liquid soap. Spray the mixture on the foliage of garden plants that are susceptible to these pests. Dusting your plants with plain talcum powder repels flea beetles on tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and other plants.

Could you please upload a clearer image of the insects so we can verify the species? Thanks almost 7 years ago.
