Cyclamen mite damage? What to do please?

Hi all, I’m new to gardening. I think I might have cyclamen mites on my new Delphinium. If so, can I treat it and stop it spreading to my others?

    Cyclamen mite attacks cyclamen, I think you have this.

    Thank you. That looks about right. Seems like I need to remove the plant. Don’t suppose anyone knows how long I will be unable to use that planting spot for? Or what I can do to cleanse that spot?

    I think you could plant something else there but not Delphiniums.
