Hello,

My avocado plant started showing these tiny brown dots on the leaves.
I have tried to find similar cases on the internet, but I couldn't.
The last leaf image is of a new leaf, which doesn't seem to have that problem. Is that because it hasn't reached it?
Does anyone know what these are?
If you need more pictures, please let me know.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

The pictures show what looks exactly like mite damage. I am not familiar with the bugs in the UK but the damage looks the same as here and is caused by either the Persea Mite or the Sixspotted Mite or some other type of mite. The control for these things is multiple sprayings of Neem Oil spaced about every 7 days.

Welcome daniela. :)

I tend to agree with you Chuck. Probably what we call Red Spider Mite.
