Ditto. Your post reminded me that there were some equitants in my collection
that had the hard brown scale that I needed to complete the 3rd round of
treatment on. So Thanks! I got out and sprayed with the Orthenex canned
spray (Mostly for the oil) However I'll follow up with a 4th treatment
(since I let it go 2 weeks too long) of Malathion. I'm probably the only
person on earth who doesn't find the smell disagreeable. Luckily I found the
soft white scale on a different plant (catt) so I was able to spray that one
too. Thanks for the reminder.

I'd go with Orthenex or Isotox, if you cannot get Orthene WP or Enstar II

OK I am totally lost. I know it is scale, but far more than I can remove
by
hand on some plants. Any sugggestions, besides ultrafine that I can
spray
on? I
really only have access to local Home Depot type stores. Hate to throw
away
some really nice Catts.
