# Just a quick PSA: remember to check cacti closely for mealy bugs. So…

_Publié par Ryan le 2023-12-20_

Just a quick PSA: remember to check cacti closely for mealy bugs. So many cacti have white tufts as part of their growth, so it can be hard to tell them apart. That was the case with my Mammillaria toluca. But when I looked at it with a lighted magnifier, the sad truth was revealed. I’ve just squinted at my other 40+ cacti and sprayed/treated a handful that were questionable.

I’ve had a houseplant or two in the past that got a bad case of pests where I really wasn’t up for treating them, and they went in the bin. But NOBODY MESSES WITH MY CACTI !!!
