If you just run a finger or thumb along the back of a leaf and it comes off stained a sort of yellow or brown color, you've got spider mites sucking the life out of those leaves.
If you put it down in the basement with other plants it could get really messy down there, should the spider mites get loose.
Let us know if you find some - should be an easy fix with soapy water spray and maybe a visit to your bathroom shower.
