Uh oh. Mealy bug. Baaaad mealy bug. What's interesting is that I had no clue that they were there; the camera picked them up. I thought I'd take a pic of the flower dying and this is what I got. Should I try to find Cryptolaemus to control it? Are they used on indoor plants? This picture was taken two days ago. By this morning the flower had disappeared and only mealy bugs are left. Any suggestions on what to do to get rid of them?
