mealybugs and roots

[Zoi2]

I purchased a plant with mealybugs about a year or so ago. The infestation wasn't that bad and it was summer, so I kept it outside on the side porch away from everything else and sprayed it with alcohol. I left it outside for about two months just to make sure all pests had gone and haven't had a problem since.

Thanks for replying, Joann. I'm glad to hear that you haven't had any more problems since you treated the infestation that you had. Mine isn't bad, either, so maybe I'll be as lucky as you were. ?? (I hope)
