I am not sure, but I think they can walk quite long distances. You may
also have root mealy bug which is much harder to kill and even harder to
detect until you repot the plant.



Methylated alcohol (impure ethanol) used for spirit burners. It
dehyrates them on contact they are quite dead and mostly stick to the
brush. The small phial I use accumulates dead mealy bug bodies.
