I dont know how to get rid of 'em,I let bugs get on my plant;I only care when they eat the leaves.When that happens I use Sevin on them.

No duh you use Bug spray.Not the expensive kind the not so cheep either.Those kinds really Works You shouldent use the expensive one because they usally rip u off. Use the regular brand tha everyone else use's. thats all i'l say

well im going to town later, first im going to try a alcohol spray... with rubbing alcohol mixed with water... I did make a lemon spray it semmed to help but i ran out and it takes forever to make.... but besides that theirs a concentrated product from bayer that yyou spray all over and it kills things and you can use it on veggies! so maybe ill use that... I cant use sevin dst becuase their on the bottome of the leaves and to put it on the bottom of every leave that would be extremely hard.... theirs 5 bushes that are connected and their new leaves and stuff so yea...

The bugs on the bushes are dead enrique and others that want to know... Theie is a few left alive but im giving th spray a rbeak it says to only use once a week but since it was a havy infestation ill do it again on wedsday... then that should be over. I also took the oputunity to thin out some of the criss crosing brances and pluck off the damaged or discolored leaves.... Wow though i cant imagine i havent noticed all the bugs before this though.... wow.... glad i got to it just in time idk what wouldve happned if i wouldve waited...

Enrique u know how u said u use seven dust. Well i found a seven liquid concentrate... so yea i used that and i took the liberty to spray all my other plants as well.. I think its the same stuff the stores use because it creates that white milky residue u know?.... well anyways think for the tip about the seven...
