Lithops scars - spider mites?

9 years ago

I received a lithops bare-root with these scabs on its side - I thought it might just be some scarring or transport damage or sunburn so I thought nothing much of it and potted it with the other lithops I received from the same seller.

None of the other lithops have these scars and now I'm wondering if they could be the work of spider mites - and if I've now put the others at risk of getting infested in the same pot?

I'm leaving on vacation tomorrow and would hate return in two weeks to find my new pot of lithops devastated, so what are my best options right now? Separate the scabby one? Spray all with insecticide? Please advise, thanks!
