fuzzy tiny woodlice???
Hi,
Im still new at keeping bonsai, so i dont really know alot about them. At the moment i ahve a plague of what look like tiny white woodlice on my bonsai. There are also patches of fluffy looking mold stuff. The leaves are all slowly withering and dying. The little blighters have what looks like two antenna coming from their back end. They are really tiny. thanks squirrel |

fuzzy woodlice
Thanks guys, i checked out some of the links, and it definatly looks like mealy bug! I have looked into treatments, but opinion seems to be that they are fairly hard to treat. The bonsai has lost nearly all of its leaves, and i cant help but think that it s maybe a lost cause now.
Any ideas on the best way to treat (i am in the UK)? or am i better off to get a new tree?? It sucks if it has killed my tree because it was a present from my best frend when my mum died in december  thanks guys! |
