See the 3 photos of different plants in my house.
The first picture I identified as thrips, so I threw the plant away. Unfortunate, but it was a pothos only a few months old so I'll get a replacement.
The second plant is a money tree (I think), and these browning leaves are turning up everywhere in my house. Unique with this money tree is that I see sticky sap on the stems of the leaves, though not very visible in this picture. The sticky sap is also on the healthy leaves that show no sign of degradation. I see no signs of scale, so what the hell?
The 3rd picture is what seems to be happening with all my plants. At first I thought it was sun damage from the good weather we've had, but last week was very grey and more spots keep appearing.
I was on holiday for a week about 3 weeks ago and when I came home everything was super dry(tm), so I've been watering them more than usual the last 2 weeks whenever the soil is dry like usual.
Money tree is in an East facing window, 3rd picture is in a South facing window.
Please help me diagnose!

Thrips and possibly spider mites.
Thrips for sure the first and second image… possibly third image might be spider mites also.
