Scale/Mealybugs and Orchids
Hello All,
This year proved to be a very "mixed bag" for summering parts of the collection outside. The really extended wet period wreaked havoc on the phals. Now that the time has come to bring all the plants back indoors, I'm finding that I have a major development of mealybugs on some of my catts and scale on the dendrobiums. On other plants I'd just do the alcohol "scrub" and dose them with systemic insecticide. While I can do the former on the orchids, the latter isn't (to my knowledge) possible at home. Does anyone have suggestions for control of these two specific pests that doesn't involve endless iterations of careful inspection and hand cleaning? Brian, who has several plants coming back into bloom |
