# My Kalanchoe and my Jade both keep getting bugs and I’m not sure how…

My Kalanchoe and my Jade both keep getting bugs and I’m not sure how to get rid of them. Please help! I’ve tried spray with water or using a little toothpick to scrape them off. Repotted them. What else can I do?

Try wiping them off and getting organic bug killer

Insecticide will help a lot

getting insecticidal soap/systemic granules \& diatomaceous earth will be the best course of action for pests :)

Looks like aphids on the jade plant and thrips on the other plant.  
\- Isolate both from each other and from your remaining plants.  
\- Aphids can be knocked off with spray from a hose or shower if in an apartment.  
\- Thrips need to be treated with a soapy dishwater solution mixed with isopropyl alcohol. You can spray aphids too. Spray a couple of times a week until they are gone.  
\- Spray the area, under the pots/leaves and nearby plants. Spray the soil.

Avoid systemic poisons. They have lung cancer warnings and require protective gear to apply. Then, you are exposed full time.

Sprayed with a combo of vegetable oil, dawn, and water (that’s what Google said) and now a bunch of healthy looking leaves are just dropping like flies ☹️
