How to control scale insects on flowers? A complete guide to the methods

1. Mix baijiu with water at a ratio of 1 to 2, and when treating the insects, water the surface layer of the potting soil thoroughly. Scale insects begin their activity in spring when the room temperature reaches 7°C, so you can water once in mid-April, then about once every half month thereafter, and results appear after 4 consecutive treatments.

2. Use 50 milliliters of edible vinegar (rice vinegar), dip a small cotton ball into the vinegar to wet it, then gently wipe the stems and leaves of the affected flowers and trees with the wet cotton ball to wipe away and kill the scale insects. This method is convenient and safe, and it not only achieves the goal of pest removal but also helps the damaged leaves turn green again.

3. Gently and repeatedly wipe the diseased plant with alcohol, and the scale insects can be removed.
