Would like to know of a home remedy for mealy bugs on my plants?
Home remedy? Try washing the plant with soapy water? Good luck!
Mealy bugs are a terribly persistant. I've tried commercial products and soap and water in the past. They'd always reappear. Ended up throwing out the plant. I just didn't have the patience to continually keep after it.
Whatever you decide on, keep the infected plant completely isolated from your other house plants or the bugs will spread to them too.
Reply:I dumped achohol in an old lid, used q tips to touch and lift the mealy bugs from the plants. then used soapy water and rinced them. If you have a really badly infected plant it might be wise to throw it out to save the rest of the plants.
