I got the "bomb 'em" advice from Laurel on the other forum, too. Lindsay, it's actually too darned easy when you use the 'big guns' like the Bayer systemic. Organic controls are much more work.
I have the Bayer 3-in-1 concentrate, so will let the plant recover for a few days and then re-pot, douse and spray with Bayer right before I leave for my trip.
That oughta get the little, you know, bugs.
Thanks all!
