Just treated my blue oil fern for mealybugs a second time, and gave him a new pot. I hope he likes growing in sphagnum

      I physically removed the adult mealybugs with a q-tip the first time. The second time i replaced as much soil as possible with new and used alcohol soaked q-tips on any visible mealies. So far i haven't seen them back, but I'm keeping an eye on it
