How I’m treating mealy bugs on my plants!

Plants with Krystal

PLEASE READ‼Lacewings are so smart and they are an amazing beneficial pest for your plants.

I purchased these from @arbicoorganics and I purchased 5,000 eggs to cover about 2,000 square feet. Please read the instructions on the bottle with how to use.

Green lacewings are omnivores which means their diet is based on the plants and animals and they feed on soft bodied insects which included aphids, mites, thrips, mealybugs, etc. Green lacewings aren’t very strong flyers, so they will stay in your plants/garden during their life cycle which is 3760 days.

I’m personally making the switch to treating my plants as naturally as I can and have stopped using systemic granules for some time because:

1. It reduces the resistance that the harmful pests will develop from these chemicals and attack my plants in a harsher way when they do attack.
2. I want to avoid harming the beneficial pests that our plants have along with affecting the pollinators/insects/and birds with our plants outside.

Leaf cleaner I use is just water and a few drops of Castile soap and for the isopropyl rubbing alcohol, be sure to use no more than 70 percent!
