The DC developed a huge black spot near the top ( rot ) I removed the affected leaves and sprayed with liquid seven and left it out in the sun for a few hours.....other than a little sun burn they seem fine
I had them in a lemon tree in my bay window. The sun showed up and so did they so I mixed some powder hand soap and water. Now I have creepy dead bugs but it is still to cold here to put them out to wash them off.
