Neem Oil is a total waste of time, money. All of the home made "remedies" ..70% alcohol, dish washing soaps, 409 spray cleaner and ALL combinations will not solve the mealy bug infestation. Soaking the whole orchid in 3% hydrogen peroxide only worked for a short period of time. Believe me I've been there ..done that. Time for the big guns to blast the bastards to bug, hell: ORTHENE 97.4% Acephate .773lb Systemic Soluble Insecticide for Turf,Tree & Ornamentals. On Amazon for $15.85 W shipping.I mix it in a hand sprayer ( using rubber gloves) and take the plants outside or into the garage. Let them totally dry out before bringing them inside again. Of course if you have a green house just spray away.
