# Help!!!! Can somebody help me, please? Idk what to do with these bugs…

Help!!!!  
Can somebody help me, please? Idk what to do with these bugs anymore. I believe it’s called mealybug, I’ve tried so many things and it keeps coming back and it’s now spreading to other plants.  
It started with 2 plants and I isolated them, but the plants that are in the area where the 2 plants used to be are now getting bugs too. I already used water and soap, then rubbing alcohol with water, I also got neem oil. I gave the plant a “shower”, I wiped and sprayed the leaves but those bugs keep coming back and it’s killing the leaves little by little. Any advice??

Put the entire plant, pot, rootball in soapy (dawn) water for an hour. Proceed with insictide soap every week for a while, and mix neem oil in your water for maybe a month
