I have no picture because I sprayed them all off, but my Bird’s Nest Fern has scale. I prayed them off with water, and then sprayed the whole plant with neem oil. Will this be effective!? 😖 bugs!

    Depending on the pest it could be. After giving it a good spray with neem oil and letting it sit a bit I like to rinse the plant with another spray of water, unless you’ve tested it to make sure the plant isn’t sensitive to it. It’s worked well for me in the past

    If you find any more dip a qtip in undiluted Isopropyl alcohol and dab on the scale to kill them. For more severe infestations you can make a diluted spray (water and alcohol) for the whole plant but recommend patch testing first to make sure it won’t scorch the leaves
