You caught it early.

Check your other plants. I brought those critters and mealy bugs home with two discounted plants I got from Home Depot. Four of my expensive plants were infected. One is still recovering.

I’m quarantining all the plants around it into bathroom now. I also got this from Home Depot. But all the other plants I got from there are doing fine.

So is it a Home Depot thing….? 🤨

If you get plants from Home Depot, there is a 100000% chance it has a bug infestation 😂. I always hose those bad boys down and drown it with insecticidal soap before it comes into my house.
