      No clue what that is except that it’s a no from me! Lol do they go on spider plants? I don’t see any so far on my spider plant. How do I prevent this?!

      Scale is a an infestation by tiny, sap-sucking insects that attach themselves to stems, leaves, and branches. How close is your spider to this plant ?

    Errr…I don’t know. 😅 I have so far only had scale on any plants once and those plants are gone now. My only advice is don’t buy plants with scale, but I know that’s not exactly possible at all times. I’m hoping that if I very encounter scale again I’ll be able to figure it out, but until then, all I can say is “best of luck!” 🍀
