Ok, so I was recently voted to be the 1st VP of our AV club, and it is my "job" to come up with topics for each meeting.

For our August meeting, the topic is Pests & what to do about them. Our ex-president (who also owns the AV nursery in Boerne) will do the presentation. He is pretty set in his ways (nothing wrong with that), but I want to be able to throw some good options at him during the meeting.

So, for pests such as gnats, mites, thrips and mealy bugs (both types), what do you use/have used, and how do you think they worked?

Thanks,
Nichole
