Can someone tell me how to treat this. I've got it on two of the plants so far and it is spreading. Do I need to pluck out the infected plants? Or is their a treatment? Thankyou for your help.

Tammy,
The leaves have tiny reddish/orange spots on them?
Usually that's in the soil and watering and the
humidity...
If it stays dry, it's okay, but the wetter it gets and warmer, it spreads....

Clean out the leaves that have dropped,
or any dead debris at the base of the plants....

And watch the water splashing around the plant..

I believe you can get some natural stuff in
Gardens Alive for it... a sulfur product...

Thanks Weezie. That sure sounds like it's the problem. And yes there is a lot of spashing. These are the plants that the landlord waters buy the bucketful lol. They get quite a bath. But he's trying.
