Is it difficult to clean bugs on succulent plants? Stay away from aphids on succulent plants with a drop of vinegar.

Aphids are the most common crop pests. Herbaceous flowers, woody flowers, are affected by aphids, succulent plant Buddha beads are particularly prone to aphids. Aphids, also known as honey insects, greasy insects, etc., mostly belong to the family Homoptera and are pests of piercing and sucking mouthparts, often clustered in leaves, tender stems, flower buds, terminal buds, etc., pricking and sucking juice, making leaves wrinkled, curled and deformed, causing branches and leaves to wither or even die in serious cases. Honeydew secreted by aphids can also cause coal fouling disease, virus disease and harm to ants.

The most common pests of succulent plants are aphids and scale insects, most of which harm the succulent plants of crassulaceae and Compositae, often sucking the juice of the young part of the plant, causing plant growth weakness, and its secretions also attract the invasion of ants. Normal-growing succulent plants suddenly turn yellow and atrophy, so it is necessary to carefully observe whether there are diseases and insect pests, such as aphids, which are easy to find. Aphids also often appear on flower arrows of succulent plants, which are small, winged, can fly and are nearly transparent in color.

If the number is small, the pest can be killed with tweezers or cotton swabs. The fecundity of aphids is very strong, and the reproductive algebra varies greatly according to different species, climate and nutritional conditions. If it is a large quantity, you can mix vinegar and water evenly at 1:1, then rinse the succulent plant with a diluted solution.

For scale insects, the damage is very wide, which often harms succulent plants such as tequila and 12-roll genera with compact leaves, sucking sap from stems and leaves, resulting in poor growth of plants, and in serious cases, wilting and death. Its high incidence period is earlier than that of red spiders and often multiplies in large numbers in early spring. But its harm is also easy to control, that is, it is often concentrated on a small number of plants, sometimes one plant is covered with scale insects, but the neighboring one has none.

Scale insects are not without control methods, if the number is relatively small, you can use a brush to drive away. In addition, it can also be sprayed with 800-1000 times liquid, which can be mixed with a certain amount of carbofuran in the culture soil, but the effect is only 3 months.

The scale insects can be eliminated with sterilized alcohol. If the concentration is 75% or more, the scale insects can be removed by repeatedly wiping the insect pests with an appropriate amount of alcohol. As for the tools, you can try a brush or brush, if the leaves are too dense, directly drench the seriously damaged leaves with alcohol, and then observe for a few days, and then scale insects will continue to use alcohol.

For the physiological diseases of succulent plants, due to the harsh planting environment, such as strong light exposure, serious lack of light, sudden low temperature, long-term water shortage and other factors, resulting in stem and leaf epidermis burns, browning, excessive growth point, part of tissue frostbite, tip atrophy and so on, the most fundamental measure is to improve the cultivation conditions.
