hey,will Malathion work for sarracenias?i mean is it safe?
when plants attacked by mealy bug, it would seem unusual leaf growth.
then I uproot and check plants.
i dont find that insecticide brand here. here i use cheap sistemic insecticide.
wash the roots thoroughly, then spray pesticides. replant again with new fresh media.
repeat spraying pesticides from surface media after few days/week. depend on the plant health
