Spider mites are the devil. Have you tried bucket-dunking anything you bring inside in safers/alcohol mix once a week for three weeks, every couple months? I suspect it's futile since once they inhabit a space they kind of inhabit it, but I also did indoor plants in office towers for many years and never actively lost anything to spider mites while I was being paid to maintain (ssafers spray + wipe) them.
I am totally envious of your citrus. What is citrus-related?
My mom has a bay laurel planted outside her marina and they hack off something like 4' of hedge every year to maintain the neighbour's site line. I'm always astonished at how good they smell and how well they overwinter outdoors. Does it not do for you there? Your climate escapes me, I tend to think of that part of the US as "warm, grows anything that bugs/disease doesn't eat" based on almost no actual info.
Is it a pineapple from the top of a pineapple, or a fancy bought one?
