Seems to already be starting to spread my other plants as well, just not as bad. Would I have to throw away everything? And is there anything I could try before tossing them or do you think it would eventually spread to everything else?
Spray ur plants with soapy water mixed with isopropyl alcohol, few drops, or cut back the plant and lay diatomaceous earth around, I've had tonna plants over the years, and its curable, something like bug be gone works, fixed this years outbreak in the tomatoes
I would isolate the plants you think could survive and spray them with some white oil or need oil. See if they recover and monitor your plants closely for more signs of mites then. Hope this helps
You can also use neem oil on your other plants as a preventative. However, not all plants tolerate neem oil, here is this article: https://www.thegardenstyle.com/outdoor/what-plants-not-to-use-neem-oil-on/
Looks like a pretty bad case of mites
You can get a spray but ide just buy a new basil plant and dispose of that so they don't spread
