Skullkeeper Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Hi I have just noticed White Fly on 2 of my Venus Fly Traps that are in an Unheated green house, Whats the best option to get rid of them? Thanks Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocky71 Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Provado ultimate bug killer spray seems to be the weapon of choice here. It'll kill pretty much any pest but will obviously also kill beneficial insects so something to think about through the summer months.

FredG Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Provado in winter ( use only where absolutely necessary) and Mexican Pinguicula in summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocky71 Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 I had a pretty big aphid infestation on my dionaea about a month back. I just happened to pop out during a very rare dry spell to clean off some of the dead leaves and found some of the remaining green traps smothered in aphids. I'm not a fan of insecticides but we're talking about a large tray with 60 plus pots in it, anyhow the whole lot got a light spray with the provado and so far so good. If there was another way that wasn't going to involve dunking every plant individually then I'd consider it but for ease and success rate it's got to be Bayers !
