Smile Re: Bug and Pest Ridding Tips...

If it was mine, I'd take the plant out of that pot and shake off all the infested soil and beatles, and re-pot it into a sterile medium which can be acquired from most greenhouses.


I am fanatical about dirty soil, and only use the best. I have enough bugs to worry about when my plants are in clean soil, so I like to control as much as I can and keep the pest populations to a minimum.


It's not a good idea to keep that infested soil around as it could easily spread to other plants and pots. Then you'd have a real huge problem that you don't want.


As for fungus...


Scrape it off first, then apply the cinnamon. Water from the bottom until Spring when you can open the window again and get some air circulation going on.
