Re: My poor Ae Ae, I hope they recover...
Martin, while you have them outside, a good rinsing of the leaves with the garden hose will help to rid you of spider mites if you have them. The tell-tale sign is webbing on the leaves. I get them regularly here and use Isotox, Avid, and Forbid, rotating these products when I use them. Lately, I haven't bothered treating them because a good rinsing with the hose seems to keep them in check. Some people have used a drop of dishwashing detergent mixed with water successfully. Cutting off those yellow fronds will eliminate a large portion of them as well if you have them.
