Having a problem in the garden with no idea of the cause is not uncommon. If you grow your own citrus fruit you need to know about scale insects as they are commonly found on such plants. They can multiply quickly if not identified. Awareness is the key.

Scales (also aphids) are often grown by ants and moved to the ideal places. The ants love the sweet excrement of the insects and protect them against predators such as the ladybug. You can sometimes observe for yourself that the ants attack the ladybugs and chase them away. If you fight the ants, the predators can do the work for you. If you see ants on plants, you can definitely expect to have scale insects or aphids on your plants. You only have to follow the ants and you can find those attackers. Greetings from Belgium

Super helpful. I just saw these on my indoor soursop cuttings. I didn’t know it was a bug, I thought it was a thing the plant was producing. I’m noticing the leaves are drooping, so it’s time for me to get busy!

Glad I could help! Best wishes with the soursop.

Here is another take, I have several years experience with scale and I have found the most effective treatment for adults scale is to use isopropyl alcohol in a spray bottle. Cover the plant entirely. It is very effective in penetrating the waxy coating on the adult scale.

Thank you! I have been neglecting some of my citrus and need to take some action. I have found scale to be persistent pests, but one that can be managed if treated for consistently.

Thank you sir.My mom had told me to just use rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle not mix down with water or anything and I thought that it would kill/burnthe plant but it didn’t it only killed the scale and it has worked great. I just appreciate your video still and like to be open tonew things

Thanks for the info. I tend to apply lower level controls when possible.

@@newgardenroad lower level? Rubbing alcohol is pretty harmless (except to the bugs you spray it directly on) and completely harmless once it evaporates... But just an idea that I found works amazingly. To each their own and everyone can garden just however they please :)

Do you have to treat the soil also? Or repot?
@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad 2 года назад
I don't typically treat the soil or repot. Many times they will harbor at the base of branches and in crevices and those can be some of the most difficult to control.

Does Castile soap work?
@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad 3 года назад
Hello! Castile soap works great in the soapy water mix that I use, but only for physically wiping scale off plants. It does not work as a contact spray.

I hope you’re not annoyed by all my comments I’m also trying to help your channel but give my input as well… A lot of channels recommend Neem oil but I tried that and it killed him with every plant attached. I suppose I needed to rinse it off afterwards or I didn’t mix it correctly I don’t know but I don’t like that stuff and it smells like Pooh Pooh
@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad 3 года назад
I haven't used neem products very much at all, but I have heard that a drench of water and emulsified neem can control fire ants when applied directly to their mounds.

@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad 4 года назад
Great question! Mealybugs and scale are closely related. Although mealybugs can develop a white, waxy, cottony material on their bodies, the cottony cushion scale is distinctive in it's appearance by elongated, fluted white cottony egg sacs which are frequently two times longer than the body. Very interesting bugs, just not on my citrus!

@newgardenroad 4 года назад
My approach with pest control is to enact the lowest level application possible. I haven't found commercial products to be necessary for controlling scale.

I don’t know why I never googled this but I just did hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/scale-insects/ I wouldn’t think we would move them but I guess you’re right about that. They are usually pretty stuck on the plant so I didn’t think that’s how they would do it… Good call
