YES ! lol ! Debbie

Pic 1: Wow look at that cactus!

Pic 2: Those cacti look like stones.

Pic 3: That's a nice succulent, is it one of those mesems.

Although I'd let them of with euphorbias.

Hi All,
OK now perhaps we all know our worst pest, for me it's mealy bugs and RSM, so what do we use to kill them and how. I have used Provado with good results but what is Provento?? sold by Wilkos.

I really want to try and get rid of them this year, so all out war.
Would like to hear your advice, etc.

Regards

Mel.

Provanto is the new name for the Provado range of products, the active ingredients have changed a few times as well so past experience is not much use

Those are the preservatives. The active ingredient is deltamethrin.
