Looks like spider mites to me.

Vlad is correct.  It does certainly look like spider mites.  You can eliminate the mites with a horticultural oil spray, or neem oil spray, or even with a VERY thorough water spray.  If you use water I would recommend three water sprays to be sure that you got them all.  You should be able to see the spider mites with a magnifying lens.
