      It’s a misconception, do not list your plants, can attract nats and mold. Use a humidifier if you need humidity. And use a neem and isopropyl alcohol, water mixture into a pray bottle if you want to treat and clean your leaves/plants.

    A big NO, misting can cause fungal/ bacterial infections. Most plants are ok with it but not alocasias. They like high humidity but not water sitting on its leaves. If you want to raise humidity levels try a humidifier or a pebble tray

    Misting won’t actually increase ambient humidity, so I wouldn’t recommend it

    I mist all my plants with filtered water (am in a hard water area) and for alocasias I mist incredibly gently, and rely mostly on a humidifier
