Name: Brian
Ontario Canada (Zone 5b)
I bought a new phalaenopsis a couple months ago and failed to keep it isolated from my other phals. Now I have mealy bugs running amok through my plants Grumbling (so far only my orchids but in time I'm sure the others will fall) I'm at a loss on how to get rid of them. I live in Ontario Canada and all our useful chemical treatments have been banned, I've been using rubbing alcohol but can't keep up with the little bleeeps. Does ANYBODY have a suggestion? Can the plants be sprayed with the rubbing alcohol without killing the plant? I'd very much appreciate any suggestions on how to at least control if not eliminate the little monsters.
