Mealybug ControlMealybugs are segmented insects with pinkish bodies that are covered by white waxy fluff. They use their sucking mouthparts to feed on host plants. This weakens the plants causing leaf distortion, yellowing, and leaf loss. As they diminish a plant’s health, it may also become more susceptible to other insects and plant diseases. As there are many different species of mealybugs, they have a wide range of host plants. Mealybugs are immune to most insecticides, but parasites are considered a long-term solution for infestations.
