   Planty Things

   about 3 years ago

   Mealy bugs, I lost 3 of 6 plants to them. If you’re not too attached I’d throw it away. If you want to try and save it, flush it with water to wash them off, dip a qtip in alcohol and remove any leftover bugs, change the soil, clean the pot and spray with neem oil. Isolate it , and repeat the alcohol qtip and neem oil every 3 days until you don’t see them.

   Planty Things gave good advice. While I havent used neem on echeveria , I’ve had good luck with alcohol. Treating the crevices was tough though. After going over with an alcohol swab, I used an eye dropper to apply alcohol directly to areas the swab couldn’t reach. I was careful not to soak the plant and removed any excess after a minute or so. Didn’t want to harm the soil flora and fauna or burn the plant. I also moved to lower light for a couple of days. Good luck. Mealies aware persistent devils.
