My very well meaning partner brought me home a plant from the grocery store. What are these pests?
My very very kind and well meaning partner brought me home a plant and it was placed on the window sill with my others but the pests on it are so so so bad. I’m seeing round little yellow slow moving bugs (thrips? They look chonkier than the ones I’ve seen before), red little spider things (spider mites?) and those white whispy things (mealy bugs?). I’ve tried Captain Jacks bug spray, neem oil, and a systemic insect control product by Bonide. Nothing makes a dent in all that’s going on! Help!
