probable pest


Question
i have a small leafy green houseplant that during the spring and summer i place hanging near the screened window . it looks like small insect(s) are feeding on the leaves . is there a simple concoction i can use to rid the problem ?

Answer
Hi Sal,

We need to ID the pest first. Indoor plant pests do not gnaw holes in the leaves or chew the edges. If that is what you are seeing, then that is a pest from outside, not a houseplant pest.

Can you describe the pests that you are seeing or send a photo of them to me at [email protected]? Once we have a proper ID, then I can help you with an effective treatment.

Regards,
Will Creed
