Mealy Bugs


Mealy Bugs  are the best examples of the survival of the fittest. HOW???

Let us see HOW  ☺👄

Mealy bug will never ever suck ur pesticide cuz their prepuce enters the soft tissues of the plants .
Mealy bugs have a waxy coating over them <it is thin though> . And i Know u all know about that from other websites.
Mealy bugs multiply very rapidly in Warm and humid weather .
Mealy bugs have morphologically difference in males and females. Males can fly females wont. MALES CAN FLY ALWAYS ofcuz.



Now How to treat them .

In my case I had massive invasion of mealy bugs in my lawn grass and Papaya, Guava
<it has hard tissue though>.

So treated with everything available from internet based research notes.

In the nutshell i am gonna tell u :-

Alcohol  kills instantly.<Exosmosis>
Neem oil mixed with soap water . <equal quantity of liquid soap and neem
Fubendiamide 39.35 %    Insecticide <Bayer named it as FLAME> . Remember it is a powerful insecticide . Single drop in one to one and half litre .

Biological control method Beauveria bassiana is a fungus   owhich kills the mealybug. It is a pathogen of mealybug.

Black ants can kill the mealy bug . How?? Mealybugs kill the plant by sucking their sap and black ants kill the mealybug by peircing the waxy coat and sucking their sap.

Lady bugs does the same.
