Hay Bill, I got a mother-in-law plant and the other day I found a couple of mealy bugs on her. She is, oh, Id say 10 meters from my Orchids. I know I have books around that have remedies but I thought I would drop a line on here before checking out the literature and get as much input as possible. Iv never had to deal with these things at home, only greenhouses, and I would like to eradicate them ASAP. I reckon neem is as good as any but what of pyrethrums? Or would a cayenne/garlic/safer soap blend do the trick?
