I think you mix the insecticide with water according to instructions given on how to use the insecticide and apply it once every three weeks. Is the same for all plants, so yeah....which plant kena scale insect?

Two words: neem oil. Neem oil (minyak margosa) can be obtained from Indian shops selling prayer stuff, soap etc.. Google for instructions.
