Picture just for attention grabbing!!

Looking for tips to get rid of mealy bugs on a pinstripe Calathea. I’ve isolated the plant but that’s it so far. I’ve only seen a few and would love to get rid of them before I feel like I need to sacrifice the entire plant. Please help!!

Neem oil and captain jack’s bug spray both work great for me. Isopropyl alcohol on a q-tip will also kill the bugs on contact.

I use alcohol and systemic granules
