You might have some luck with making sure they stay dry so the fungus can’t grow,and using some neem oil. Neem oil can be used on cacti to repel insects and treat fungal diseases. It contains Azadirachtin, which can help with pests like mealy bugs, aphids, whiteflies, mites, and Japanese beetles. Neem oil can also treat fungal diseases.
