Bringing the plants back indoors

[estación seca]

Spontaneous generation.

Yeah. Really...don't get me started...but, I don't mind brewing them some coffee.

Good luck! I got rid of all of the Bush snails and did not have them for a few years and then one arrived on an order of miniatures and must have already laid eggs....

Does Azamax kill bush snails? I'm not sure I've seen them before.

According to leafmite, we should drench with coffee or use coffee grounds to prevent them. If I have time I'll read the label but, Ray may know off the top of his head. I doubt it though.

I am trying the coffee grounds/coffee because of the results of that study I posted (there is another, better source of that study somewhere).

If you do not have anything in bloom, Sevin (Carbaryl) is what I used the previous time to eliminate Bush Snails (and everything else). Sevin kills all the pests but it also kills all the pollinators I currently have many plants in bloom this year and I do not use pesticides in the home so Sluggo-plus, coffee grounds, and Neem oil is the preferred choice.

If you go the Carbaryl route, just sprinkle the powder on the medium surface, leaves, and stems of every plant.

Good luck!

I like the coffee idea.

I honestly don't know if Azamax ffects mollusks.

When you say "never when wet", are you meaning if you have watered them in the last day or so they should be brought in? I still need to water my orchids in winter so far, almost as much as in summer as our winters have very low humidity whereas summers are very humid. (I'm in the subtropics).
