    Awesome video. I deal with scale problems on my cattleyas every summer . I use the home made solution of alcohol, water and dish soap. With a soft toothbrush, I scrub the scale off the leaves and bulbs.

    Brad, you are absolutely right that it's much harder to manage pests in a larger plant collection. I sure wished that I could in fact use acephate to eliminate scale and mealy bugs altogether instead of controlling it. I do live in a condo and it's tricky how I'd go about applying it.
    Thanks for the very informative video and hope to see more like this.

    Great Brad, always interested in how you handle these situations and, anything you have to say to support what you do, your thinking behind your decisions or whatever you want to share :D Thanks! Always interesting!
    Anyway, you are so right! I JUST yesterday realized I had scale on a plant and I wasn't prepared! I actually use your water/alcohol/dish soap combo but they came back the next day and I realized I would probably need a systemic for this and I didn't have one and didn't know where to begin and here's your video. Oh well, in this case it was a succulent that I had no problem just chopping the head off of, haha... it was one of those where I've heard it will just grow back which is fine. Also, repotted since I like to do this, usually with new plants.
    p.s. I always think you get to the point pretty quickly actually! Thanks again. ;)

    hi Brad - I have some Acephate so I was wondering what dilution do you use (how much product to water) & do you just spray the foliage or do you water the plant with it?

    Thank you for your video. I think you have helped me to diagnose what I have been fighting on my begonia. I have had this indoor begonia for over a year now and never had a problem with it before now, so:
    Question #1 - since it sits by itself in a bay window in my kitchen how did it get this pest? Is it airborne? Since I didn’t know what I had but knew something was wrong; the leaves had a sticky residual on them that showed in the sun light - I took some warm soapy water and a rag and carefully hand washed the tops and bottoms and stems of each leaf and stem and found what looked like round scabs that were either almost clear with a little bit of white to them or that were clearly visible round looking tannish color with a brown center. It took some doing but I finally got the leaves and stems cleaned off. Or so I thought.
    Question #2 - is what I have described scale? If not, do you or any of your followers have any idea what I have?
    Question #3 - I repeated the process because after a few days I saw evidence that my bug problem wasn’t gone (newbie mistake 🙃) only this time I also poured some soapy water into the pot thoroughly drenching it till water ran out the bottom; waited a few hours and then poured in more of my soapy water (1Tb of Dawn dish soap to a gallon of water) again until it ran out of the bottom. Was this ok to do? I was guessing and hoping it would help. I hope this won’t hurt the plant. I did this two days ago.
    Question #4 - if I am dealing with scale how long till I don’t see any more sticky residual that look like little clusters of clear shinny droplets reappearing? I’m imagining those are the eggs or very young scale? I washed all the leaves again last night till I couldn’t see any more clear dots. Finally,
    Question #5 - I want to drench the soil again but am concerned whether this was a good thing the first time. So, should I do it again? Should I make up a solution with the rubbing alcohol in it this time and if so with what percentage 1 or 3% since I have seen it both ways? Do I need to eventually drench the soil with just water to git rid of the soap in the soil once I’m sure the pest is eradicated? Again I’m not sure whether the soap in the soil is harmful to the plants roots.
    I know this is a lot, but I am thankful for your help should you have time to answer all these questions.

  • @juzy2398
    @juzy2398 4 роки тому

    Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this to us. I really have a panic attack seeing any sort of critters on my orchids. Regarding the systemic, you just sprayed all the leaves with it both sides? Would it of been ok with just your homemade formulation? Also, do I have to worry about the bugs living in the roots? How often will you fo the treatment if you were not repotting? Thank you in advance.

    Good info. on a situation every indoor plant grower will have to deal with at some point. While the use of toxic chemicals should be kept to a minimum sometimes the only viable alternative is to discard your prized infested plants. You've been lucky that mites, mealies and aphids haven't simply drifted in from outside very often as is commonly the case in greenhouses. Have you done a video on how to make sure that new acquisitions don't introduce pest and diseases into your collection / greenhouse ? ~ While use of toxic chemicals is unpleasant, controversial and undesirable it is also sometimes a necessity. Their use should be dealt with in a clear, detailed and forthright manner that actually helps limit their use, not promote it.

    Good day Brad. Here in Canada, Acephate is hard to come by. Did you happen to get Acephate online or at a retailer?

  • @desertplantsofavalon
    @desertplantsofavalon 8 років тому

    This is such a helpful video Brad :-) definitely more vids like this :-) mealies and scales are such a pain on our plants, and I have had such a problem very recently with the wooly Aphid that look like mealies but they are Aphids and are much larger and they seem to be indestructible LOL! I am the same as you when it comes to not really liking to use chemicals and I prefer to use natural ways too and mostly use neem oil and spend hours picking them off especially the scales, but I have had to use a product called provado on the ones I can't reach or pick off that I water into the soil and it acts systemically, but it doesn't seem to be touching the wooly Aphids, but I will keep an eye out for the acephate sulphate, I am not sure if its available in the insecticide products here in Ireland :-) thanks a million for haring Brad and sending heaps of love and happy growing from Ireland XXXXX

      Thanks Brad, I've been using Dish soap ( not blue Dawn .. ) and alcohol/ water, with good short term results. Things seem to come back, so I'll retry with your recipe, but what are your thoughts on neem oil?

  • @chubjoe
    @chubjoe 4 роки тому

    Helpful to the scales. But no content in targeting the other two types of sucking bugs unless there are two other separate video to complete the topic.

  • @birdluvrs
    @birdluvrs 7 років тому

    Hi Brad, Love your videos. I recently purchased some cattleya seedlings, and to my disappointment yesterday, I found one with these crawly white tiny worm-like things on a leave. They did not look like mealybugs as they were more long in shape and did not have the fuzziness to them. Then, after inspecting the rest of my seedlings, I found an adult pest crawling on a leave..still teenie-tiny and beetle-like. Kindof reddy black in color but definately is not the red spider-mites I've seen before; (this same seedling has tiny black, tar-like dots also on leaves that come off when wiped with a cloth). After going online and doing much searching, I still cannot figure out what pests I have and therefore, I'm confused about what to treat these plants with. So far, I've isolated both of them and picked off the pests that were seen. Any thoughts to what these may be? Any advice is much appreciated.

    • @BradsGreenhouse
      @BradsGreenhouse  7 років тому

      Try and google thirps, they have different life stage so be sure to look at different images of that and they leave tiny tar dots aka poop on the leaves. Same product will work on them but they are nasty and can fly when adults so they spread quickly

    Title reads how to kill scale, mealy bugs and aphids. I have mealy bugs. I'm assuming this method also kills mealy bugs because its in the title even though you did not reference mealy bugs once during the video.
