Help....I have Mealybugs
Angry Help....I have Mealybugs

How do I get run of these $&€#% bugs. I was told alcohol sprays, three time a week and then I was told H2O2 sprays once a week for 4 weeks. Anything else I can do? I have Phals and one LadySlipper. Most of my orchids have them and I have tried to separate the ones that do to try to discourage the buggers from spreading. My hubby is beginning to think I am nuts for trying all these sprays. I also looked up about getting rid of them and I read about an insect growth inhibitor...$125 a bottle! Then about some kind of 'killer' Beatles. My orchids are in my living room so I can't let a swarm of Beatles go in there (but I thought about it) Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
