Cape Sundew Aphid Infestation: Systemic Imidacloprid Treatment

Identification

Pests on newest growth are aphids, not mites.

Treatment

Use imidacloprid-based systemic insecticide (many Bayer products). Protects for ~1 month. See Sarracenia Northwest YouTube for application demo.

Plant ID

Your sundew is Drosera capensis—the most common and easiest tropical sundew.

Good Growing!
