HOW I GET RID OF MEALYBUGS ON MY PHALAENOPSIS ORCHID FAST USING DIY HOMEMADE PESTICIDE/INSECTICIDE

Mabuhay from the Philippines! Let me show you how I get rid of mealybugs on my Phalaenopsis Schilleriana Orchid fast! The leaves on my phal were getting yellow and brown with holes and brown markings then I saw the mealybugs! Mealybugs are white and fluffy, soft bodied sap sucking insects that feed on wide range of plants. I used DIY Homemade Pesticide/Insecticide that’s quite popular in Youtube, I’ve seen a lot of videos about it and this time, I used it and I’ve seen how effective it is. It is used not just in orchids but some used it in houseplants as well. Some people use different percentage of concentration but I used 40:60 ratio of Isopropyl Alcohol and Water plus a drop of dishwashing liquid soap. The ratio or percentage of concentration of isopropyl alcohol depends on how sensitive your plant is, it is best to use lower percentage of alcohol if you aren’t sure, start with 20:80 ratio of Isopropyl Alcohol, you can also use this to spray and clean the leaves of your orchids. Start with the minimum ratio containing alcohol first and try in one orchid or plant first and see then decide before using it with all of your affected plants or orchids.
