I have them under control with neem oil for now. I treated once a day for three days then once every few days. I absolutely doused them with the dilution in my mister. Not really the way you’re supposed to do it, and I have had some photosensitivity spots on a few plants.

I haven’t treated the soil but I only saw a few plants with bugs on them. I treated the whole cabinet though!

Need oil and a warm shower worked on my prayer plant. 5 days straight…a good rinse. The plant is in an orchid pot with impeccable draining soil as to avoid root rot. Haven’t seen any of them tiny devils

I think I’ve finished them off with Bonide Captain Jack’s Deadbug Brew.  
I’ll be treating them again today, but they were treated on Friday and I’ve seen no evidence of the peskies on the treated plants since.
