Default Re: The perfect insecticide for the annoying bugs.....

Well, currently, I am using the hand method. As in I lightly rub the surfaces of the leaves carefully to get rid of dirt and perhaps some pests. How about fungus? Any fungicide will do, right?

As for the ladybug, I don't wanna talk about it. I caught one behind my condo last month and put it on my s.purpurea to test for aphids. Not more than five minutes later I saw it struggling in one of the pitcher. Saved it and put it on the soil of my sarra pot but 10 minutes later it was in another pitcher. Didn't bother saving it.

So practically speaking, a light spray of sheildtox on any CPs will help kill the pest?

Cheers
