Go for it Tarev and Elaine. I know so little about pests, and I know I should know a lot more, I will have to let someone else chime in on those pictures.
Remember what I said, Tony. Ask a dozen for advice and you will get a dozen answers about THE SAME QUESTION. We all have our "beliefs"
and we all have our experiences. But we all grow in so many different conditions/environments, that one answer simply doesn't fit all occasions. My experience only fits my conditions and environment, Tarev's is different, and certainly, Elaine, who lives in a sub-tropical region, will be different. You and Tarev have similar conditions (I think).
I am going to step back and let others comment. I grow a awful lot of orchids, and grow about the same range as you do, Tony. Cattleya alliance is what I grow most of though. But my experiences and conditions are different. I will chime in IF I think it will benefit you.
