Hi all my lovely bird’s paradise is infested with mealy bugs. I got rid of them a few with ago with 70% rubbing alcohol on the mature bugs then washed down my plant in the shower. They’re back though! How can I get rid of them for good? I just washed down the plant again and sprayed it with neem oil. Any feedback helps 💚💚

Systemic granules by bonide are a good preventative step. Not sure how effective they are with pre-existing infestations though
