When you spray the plant and the fine mist is caught in the webs making them easy to find. Take a pencil and gently break up the web with the point of the pencil without damaging the plant.

Make sure to saturate the bottom of the leaves.

Make sure to spray the soil generously in case they are living there.

Do this every few days until they are gone.
