OP Staarshadow Junior Member S Joined: Jan 2005 Florida	Several months ago, I saved a dying dieff from my neighbor's trash. It has since put out a lot of new growth, and a lot of curled up leaves that have yet to open. Unfortunately, looking at it today, I noticed what I believe to be mealy bugs all inside the curled up leaves. Any Ideas as to how to get them gone? It's also got a lot of what looks like large white dust particles in the same areas, as well as small black particles. Any clue what those are? Thanks for any help in advance.

Nip it in the bud, so to speak, before they take over! No, I'm being dramatic, you'll be fine as long as you are methodical in your annihilation of them. Good luck! http://www.thegardenhelper.com/bugs.html
