    Are they mealy bugs, white and fluffy? Iā€™m also struggling with this. I have been using neem oil and other sprays and so far it works for a time but they keep coming back

      I use an alcohol like hand sanitizer just dab them with a cotton bud and they should turn brown and die then just wipe away

    I use a spray bottle with 1 part isopropyl alcohol, 5 parts water, and a drop of dish soap Spray on/under leaves, then use a brush or paper towel to spread it across the leaf and stem. It gets rid of mealy bugs, thrips, spider mites.. probably other stuff too lol Repeat once a week until the pests are gone
