SMOTHER THEM! Neem oil or soap & water will work if you want to go a non-chemical route! How's the humidity & air circulation?

I don't know if its spider mites but are you flushing out the salts from fertilizer, once in a while?

I agree

the humidity and air circulation is the same as my other paphs...

Eric, actually i do not fertilise my paphs at all... i use a humus-rich media, and just replace it as the nutrients get depleted...
