I think I'm going to do the alcohol and Q-tip thing anyway. ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/MOXcw7te6S9UHjaWvEfp257jXZmEcofyef83nx6UvFY/M__-EIlkR9-HZG7fnTO0HA.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/MOXcw7te6S9UHjaWvEfp257jXZmEcofyef83nx6UvFY/3SAZ332nRdeIstGLPfVPRw.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/MOXcw7te6S9UHjaWvEfp257jXZmEcofyef83nx6UvFY/8_cMRPQfR5SPkAucEoiDXw.webp?size=large) ## 16개의 댓글 ### Sharon님이 2024-09-09에 댓글을 남겼어요. I think they’re one of the younger forms of gnats. Not fully developed yet #### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-09에 답변했습니다. I've never seen them before. I took alcohol on a Qtip to them. Then sprayed with Neem and treated the soil with a hydrogen peroxide mix. It's in quarantine. That better do it. lol ### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-09에 댓글을 남겼어요. White aphids sounds right. ### Sunny님이 2024-09-09에 댓글을 남겼어요. It could be young white aphids ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/wefqOljjhEOiS9LRzOB1-QhxkVJiB4A5DGumXhnNrhs/C2vtgr4nTvSEc8ZUk1GtVg.webp?size=large) #### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-09에 답변했습니다. I'm pretty sure that's what they were. Don't understand where they came from. #### Heather B님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. They show up out of nowhere don’t they? I just sprayed a plant I’ve owned for months with neem yesterday cuz the top cluster of leaves was sticky and covered in young aphids like this. Yuck. #### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. I have to check and spray all of these today. 3 different plants and 3 different problems in a month. 🤷🏼🤷🏼🤷🏼 ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/MOXcw7te6S9UHjaWvEfp257jXZmEcofyef83nx6UvFY/lazGn1jnQ6SN6m2QGDPzSg.webp?size=large) #### Bay Area Plant Mom님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. do you and your dog not go outside? ### Sunny님이 2024-09-10에 댓글을 남겼어요. Aphids find your plants. My Hoya Bella had three infestations of aphids in a year’s time no mater where I moved the plant! The orange aphids came first, the black ones came 6 months later and the white ones came 3 months later in spring when I moved the plant back outside. Bella has never been the same! 😁 #### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. That stinks. I've dealt with gnats, spider mites and mealy bugs but this was a first. Now I just noticed powdery mildew on my jade. 🤦🏼‍♀️ It's been a couple of crazy plant months. #### Sunny님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. Let us not forget the snails and slugs that opened up this growing season! My plants are finally recovering. I had to chop and prop my dragons tail to cut out the damaged leaves. Fortunately, it’s very easy to propagate in water. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/wefqOljjhEOiS9LRzOB1-QhxkVJiB4A5DGumXhnNrhs/l2hPCfMES9CBEnskqG43Dw.webp?size=large) #### Bay Area Plant Mom님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. it’s almost as if finding untreated plants to feast on was what pests did for a living! 🤣 #### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. Yuck. Haven't had those yet either. #### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. lol ### Bay Area Plant Mom님이 2024-09-10에 댓글을 남겼어요. the white skins are leftover from a tiny green aphids that are having a ball in your plant room. I’d recommend spraying them ALL down with a hose or in the shower and then applying soap vinegar mix or insecticidal soap. Nematodes help with slowing the population underground. Aphids like gnats and thrips have wings and if you leave them alone with your plants for too long they’ll take over within weeks. #### MummaDeb님이 2024-09-10에 답변했습니다. Did a bunch today. --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
