# Just noticed a bit of brown ends on my new golden pothos.. I haven’t…

_Geplaatst door Whimsy op 2024-01-28_

Just noticed a bit of brown ends on my new golden pothos.. I haven’t watered it yet, and I’m currently at my dads house (got it while visiting, bringing it home today where it will be in around the same conditions.) and have it in a north east facing window, it gets moderate light but nothing too bright. Any advice??

Edit: I found what I think might be mealybugs??

Those are definitely mealy bugs! Get some regular rubbing alcohol and a q-tip and dab each one that you can see. They die on contact. Then spray the plant with an insecticidal spray until they are gone.

I’m not sure if I have the spray, where can I get some? Or is there some other mixture I could make?
