Bugs on Mango's
« on: March 21, 2017, 05:26:37 PM »
Over the last few days I've discovered what I think are Mealy Bugs on my Mango seedlings.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as to how to handle.

Thanks

Yup, looks like mealybugs to me. Your local garden center should have a type of orchard spray to kill these bugs. Just as the nurseryman for their advice on a mealybug spray. A type of orchard spray that has some Sulfur in it may slightly help with any sooty mold you get as a consequence of the mealybug exudates.
