Neem oil and soft soap diluted in water are effective against aphids, whitefly, scale insects, thrips, and spider mites. Apply to the undersides of leaves at dusk, twice a week for two weeks.
How to spot them quickly:
— Aphids: clusters of soft green, black, or grey insects on new growth and leaf undersides
— Whitefly: a white cloud rises when you disturb the plant; adults visible under leaves
— Scale insects: fixed brown bumps on stems — they don't move
— Mealybugs: white, waxy fluff at stem joints and leaf axils
— Thrips: silvery streaked patches with small black dots on leaf surfaces
— Red spider mites: tiny moving red specks, leaves turning bronze and dull
Check the undersides of leaves each week — most infestations are easy to manage when caught early 🔍
