First photos you’ll see some buggers. What do I do? There’s like three leaves that have these along with small brown dots on the leaf. On the last photo, all the other leaves look ok. What do I do? Is this bad?? I bought this 5 days ago and these little buggers weren’t here. Haven’t watered it yet. Supposed to water it by tomorrow or so. What should I do to make sure it doesn’t get worse
You can wipe it down with rubbing alcohol or mix water, dish soap and alcohol in a spray bottle and spray it down. Those look like they could be mealybugs and I’ve had those before. Also isolate this plant from others so that it doesn’t spread to other plants!

Yes spray the leaves with neem oil, both front and back of leaves! Spray them in the evenings because neem oil can possibly make plant leaves burn if they get direct sun. I’d spray once tonight, and then again in 48 hours, and then maybe once more again 48 hours after that to make sure they are gone! Then you’ll want to add neem oil to your regular care routine (about once every 14 days for spider mite/mealy bug prone plants, or once a month for those plants that aren’t very prone)
