Does anyone have a secret weapon against thrips? We got a major infestation from our Christmas tree last year we believe!! I feel like I get control of them and then 90 days later I have another infestation and lose a plant or two. Any tips or tricks appreciated!! (I’m currently using a diluted mixed of hydrogen peroxide, 70% alcohol, rosemary oil soap, tea tree oil soap, I also sprinkle all my plants potted in soil with diatomaceous earth)
I just learned all about these as a result of a big scare after adopting a friend’s plants. What a nightmare! From what I’ve read, a combo of something for thrips at every age is important, as is cutting off leaves that are infected even if you feel like you got all the bugs off. Happyhappyhouseplant on IG has a nice set of stories about what she uses. Good luck!!!

Like any pests, you need to keep up the bug killing routine for a couple months. Even if you don’t see any.
