Such a drag. Got some new plants (from different sources) and have found mealies. Ugh, I hate bugs.

I hate scales and mealies. I came close to getting an infestation a few years ago, when they hitched a ride on some of my new additions.
I heard that mealybugs turn pink when you put alcohol on them...

I think scale is worse than mealies but they are both bad. This winter I had aphids-in the winter! I hadn't even gotten any new orchids then! Those yucky aphids attacked all the new blooms on my Dend laevafolium-I was so mad!
