A pyrethrum spray (Concern, etc.) or a soap spray (also Concern, or Safers, or home brew -- see archives) should do 'em in. Then, if it is indoors, get the tree outdoors!!!! Do not water much while the tree is leafless. Let soil dry out, then water. Jim Lewis - jklewis@nettally.com - Tallahassee, FL - Blessed statistics: A Demonstration -- Welcome to Hooterville!

Re: [IBC] fukien tea query
The brown furry things are the buds. Do not remove them. Scratch the bark
with your fingernail and if there is green under the bark the tree can resprout. At this time, do not fertilize or move the tree around. Keep it warm, above 65 F degrees, and make sure that the soil is watered only when it gets slightly dry to the touch. Good luck.
