I have a palm plant in my house and it has been infected with little red spiders. My problem is that I can't find anything to get rid of them. I've tried several stores, and no one carries any kind of spray that I can use. Do you have any suggestions?

Try a soapy water solution using a mild dish soap, mix it so it feels like dish water. Spray the plant using a spray bottle and spray every inch! You must have 100 percent coverage, you want the palm dripping wet, or any mites missed will reinvest again. Do this once a week for three or four weeks, and keep other plants away from it, or they too can become infested.Cover the soil when spraying. I would do this outside in the shade.
