Advice welcome!! I found scale on my monstera on Sunday this week : just a couple adults, no babies! I’m so paranoid, I picked them all off and used insecticidal soap top to bottom. I’m thinking of also repotting with fresh soil just to be extra safe - is that necessary or am I going into panic mode too soon? I just love this plant and don’t want her to die 😭
No need to repot. Keep an eye on it and do another spray down in about a week just to be sure. Watch the inside of the petioles too as they like to be sneaky and hide there.

I found some on my ficus bonsai. And spraying daily with a mix of dawn dish soap and water has helped a lot. I did that for about 3-4 days, and then let them rest. I also washed it off after about an hour so the mix doesn’t stay on the leaves. No need to repot.
