My monster plant has been struggling with aphids and thrips. I thought I’ve gotten rid of all of them but now there are these black dots on the leaves. I think it might be scale, but I don’t know how to get rid of them.

    It kind of reminds me of fly poop. I have chickens and all my plants near the coop have little black spots on them.

      Me too. I’m sick of pests. I’ve never had issues really and this year has been horrible.

    If it’s available where you are & you don’t have pets, I absolutely SWEAR by bonide systemic granules. They work for every pest but spider mites I believe. They can also prevent new infestations from starting!
