I live in Vancouver
5 pots by the window include:
- rubber plant
- monstera and snake plant
- an orchid
- a green anthurium
- this new plant:
They are very small, I didn’t notice they were bugs until today. I have been cleaning them away.
Some are dead, and some are walking. None are flying but they have wings.
What is it? What should I do to prevent the spread? How can I cure it in the long term?
They are still contained around the window sill. I want to get rid of them before they start flying around my home.
Should I put the plants outside?
Nah. Just water as normal. A few doses with mosquito dunk infused water is all it will take. I find the treatment will last at least a few months to prevent them from returning. If i do see more later on just one dose in previously treated soil is enough to get rid of them.
