QuestionHello
I would like to know if you can please help me with my bougainvillea.
There is something that is eating the leaves of my bougainvillea and I don't know what to do. Is there a home solution I can use other then a store bought chemical.
Thank You
Linda
AnswerLinda,
Try spraying it with rubbing alcohol thoroughly, making sure you get the fronts and backs of all leaves. Do this daily for one week then every other day for 10 more days. This should get rid of any insects and not damage the plant. You can also use 1 tablespoon of dis soap in a quart of room temperature water if you do not have rubbing alcohol. Follow the same spray schedule to get rid of any eggs that hatch. Good luck.
