QuestionI have an indoor Fica tree that has little white stickey balls at the joints of the branches....what is it and what do I spray it with ?
Thank you,
Sharyl
AnswerSharyl,
Either get some Neem oil at a Garden Center such as Lowes or us rubbing alcohol stright out of the bottle in a spray bottle and spray them. They are called mealy bugs. You will need to spray twice a week for 2 weeks then weekly for 3 more to kill and eggs that hatch. Persistance is the key. Then watch the plant for any future infestations to catch them early. Good luck.
