what pests does the plant have?

#### May antwoordde op 2025-07-13

I believe it might be mealybugs their white and small on top of all her leaves

#### sarita antwoordde op 2025-07-13

i would recommend DE, as dorie mentioned, but depending on how infested, you can also swab em away using a mixture of water and rubbing alcohol

#### Michelle antwoordde op 2025-07-14

Diluted isopropyl alcohol works great for me

Have you tried Neem Oil or Diatomaceous Earth

#### May antwoordde op 2025-07-13

I’ve never heard of diatomaceous earth where do I get that??

#### Dorie antwoordde op 2025-07-13

DE can be used to combat garden pests such as aphids, slugs, and snails.

#### Dorie antwoordde op 2025-07-13

Amazon also saw it at Walmart

Find out what pest you have first

#### May antwoordde op 2025-07-13

I think it’s mealybugs their white and small all on the top of her leaves

Read about DE and Neem to see what you should use
