I think we got all the mealy bugs there are but no problem I spray everything every two weeks. mints are also a problem but they share the same fate as the mealy bug, gone with the wind after I spay them. there there is another insect that's worse than to two mentioned before, their called Snow Scales, they stick to the branches of the hibiscus and they multiply rapidly if you don't get rid off them fast, they'll spread like wildfire, you can't miss seeing them since there white as snow and there one next to the other, people mistaken them for fungus but there scale bugs.
if you don't treat you plants on time they will kill it quiet fast, you'll notice that your plant will start to form notes around the leaf area and all growth will stop all together, leaves will start to curl and deform until the plant dies. Don't be fooled buy its size, one wouldn't think something so small can cause so much devastation but it does and they also attack citrus trees.

So far my neem oil is working quite well against these little monster bugs and its biodegradable, no harm to humans or animals, only insects.
