thrips Join the Community #Monstera #NewGrowth #FicusGang #HappyPlants #Pothos #GrowLights New Popular @nellz4estfairyz · 1M #PestControl After about 2 months of treatments I can say that I *might* be pest free! in October, I looked over at my favorite Hoya Australis Lisa and found thrips crawling on it. I’ve never seen thrips before so it took me a minute to realize what I was dealing with. I had no idea where it came from but must’ve been from one of the new plants I brought into the house over the summer or from an outdoor plant that had been brought in for the fall. I spent two weeks taking every single plant in my collection outside before the weather turned cold and frosty. Spraying everything down with the mist setting on the hose, letting everything dry, then spraying everything with a rubbing alcohol soapy, water solution. Then everything was treated with eather MiteX or We the Wild Protect Spray or both, because everything had to be treated more than once a week in order to beat the life cycle of the the thrips and their eggs hatching. I am still treating plants in the affected rooms about 1x per week as a precaution. I DID throw out quite a few plants during this time, most of which just wernt healthy enough to make worth my time to treat and carry in and out of the hose every week. So I guess this experience did help me to trim down my collection. 😅 another quarantine/treatment method I used was to take affected plants and bag them up in either large gallon Ziploc bags or large 13 gallon recycling bags which I was able to tie around my large Hoya and two large hanging baskets. Most of the plants treated in this method enjoyed the spa day, but I lost one small smaller Hoa that apparently had been locked in with too much water/humidity. 😢 #GregGang #Hoya #PothosPack #thestruggleisreal #WetheWild #thrips #PestsAndPlants #NEPAGregGang 7 3 Comments @PiousWaterfern · 3M What does this mean?? 0 2 Comments @PhiloPrince · 4M Thrips and Spider mites 6 6 Comments @Louisxvi · 4M I have survived the thrips apocalypse! 🎉🕺🏼 After releasing my beneficial bugs they started to eat each other because lack of food, now there’s only a few “winner bugs” left and they are slowing dying off of hunger. I haven’t see a single sign of thrips damage, but I have seen some stress on my plants that were in high humidity isolation. Now we just have to give them time and return to regular watering and hope everyone bounces back nicely! I still vow by the nematodes, by the time I release the beneficial bugs as a last insurance they had already done the hard work. It’s so nice to be able to let my babies breathe again and not have to stair at plastic bags all over the place, BUT the two months of hard work and dedication to the system has WORKED! 🎉🕺🏼 #thrips #thripsapocolyspe #louisxvioasis 2 3 Comments @Louisxvi · 4M The bags are gone and we have survived the thrips apocalypse! I’m almost at my 60 day mark and I haven’t seen a single bug or any new damage. 🥲 now I am doing a round of beneficials inside my greenhouses as a last precaution. It was a long 6 weeks of constant isolation and cleaning and reapplying nematodes and keeping plants in extreme high humidity. Some how I haven’t lost any plants to rott from isolation. I’m impressed , but my biggest lesson learned here is, do not rush the process with pest, it takes time but with consistency it is possible to win the war. 😸🕺🏼😎 #thrips #thripsapocolyspe #louisxvioasis 1 1 Comments @Popcornjoness · 4M #PlantMail I’m going to try this again.

We are about 3 days away from hitting the one month mark for the second wave of the thrips apocalypse. I want to give feed back on the nematodes. I have to say they must be extremely effective because I haven’t seen a single sign of new damage on any leaves and I haven’t seen any live adults or larva in two weeks. I have been cleaning my plant every 3 days and all of them with the exception of a few have been bagged for high humidity. First two weeks was completly bagged sealed and I have now moved to poking air holes for ventilation. I have barely watered the plants during time time I’ve been misting the soil on top to keep nematodes moist and effective. Once nematodes have no more food they slowly die off so I just reapplied yesterday on all my bigger plants. I will say having green houses and bagging plants individually might not be the esthetic we hope for but I only have another 30 days to go and it’s been extremely helpful to prevent spread or reinfection to other plants. At the end of the next 30 days I will be receiving greenlace wing larva ( EWWWWW I KNOW BUT HEAR ME OUT ), and releasing them inside my greenhouses. These would never be able to grow into adults and die off once they don’t have anymore food source as well, it’s going to be a one time application at the end of there 30 days to ensure I or the nematodes haven’t missed a thing. POSSIBLY PREVENTATIVE IM JUST REALLY GROSSED OUT BY BUGS. 😭 I continue to deep clean my house on a daily basis. I also have nematode traps. I made small soil pots with no plants but nematodes mixed in so if anything is missed outside the green houses they might travel upon my trap and be eaten by nematodes. I wouldn’t wish this upon my worst enemy. #louisxvioasis #thrips #thripsapocolyspe #nematodes 1 0 Comments @WalkingJasmine · 5M Hi 👋 I’m worried this might be thrips… any tips, plant people?

But my ficus Audrey I still can’t figure it out. (Last picture close up). Out of my whole propogation table the rubber fig and tineke are the ONLY survivors with a snake plant cutting. This makes me sad but also gives me such hope. I didn’t lose everything… now these 5 gallon ziplocks are a game changer , I can still have my plants located where they need to be to get their sun light without causing further infestation and also protecting them from any thrips hiding. I have yet to use actual end-all as any plants with signs of infestation I got rid of. My set up is not safe enough to spray with my cats around. Yesterday my big Snake plant cobra Manada was declared infected and my boyfriend brought her to his work in the country side for now will hose her down and maybe with a lot of direct sunlight they’ll die? We’ll assess in september. #thripsapocolyspe #louisxvioasis #thrips #thripsbegone #PestControl 5 2 Comments @Louisxvi · 7M Does this look like thrips Damage? I can’t see straight anymore… So yesterday I chopped my Audrey ficus I grew from 3-4 leaves to a small little tree and had to get rid of a bunch of bottom leaves to do so, heart broken… but anyways anyone knows if this looks like thrips damage, I didn’t find any black spots on this plant but it was dusty before I showered her…but the discolouration is making me have doubts.. help 😭 #thripsapocolyspe #thripsbegone #thrips #louisxvioasis #PestControl #AudreyFicus 0 0 Comments @Louisxvi · 7M Out of my 32 plants I’m down to 7 in less than a week, thripscalypse continues.. help 0 2 Comments @Louisxvi · 7M THIS HOUSE IS PROTECTED BY THE LORD & Pesticides! 🕷️🦟🔫✝️🐸☕️ Jesus, only you can help me make the plants clean again, GIVE ME THE STRENGHT AND RESILIENCE MY LORD! Lobotomy lost her pony tail yesterday while entering ICU. Very sad we are grieving and hoping she will make a full recovery and her hair grows back. As for these bugs, I’m supported I feel ready! Now, today is phase one of operation SMOKE IN THE POTTERS aka death of all thrips. I will be using a spray pesticide (same brand at the insecticidal soap) and this does worry me mainly for my cats, and water supply so I will be coming down with the most NON cross contaminating way of doing this… without harming myself, the cats and the wildlife/environment. This being said, dearest Greg community , please share with me any advice on how to use the spray pesticides without causing the early return of Jesus/apocalypse . 🕷️🐜🦟🔫🐸☕️ Me to the bugs https:// #operationsmokerinthepotters #thrips #thripsbegone #louisxvioasis #lobotomythegreatupdates #prayforlobotomy #jesusisking 2 6 Comments @Louisxvi · 7M I AM GREIVING, but the Greg community is truly outstanding! ❤️🩹❣️ Yesterday my world broke down, my plants were infested with THRIPS, I wouldn’t have known had it not been for the awesome people on here helping me through this as I had a complete mental breakdown, I lost about 15 plants yesterday, either to far gone, not worth putting into treatment or because of straight up DEATH. PLANTS ARE NOW IN THE ICU , updates to come. ***Also Garfield is now aswell in the ICU I will update everyone how he’s doing, his family is really concerned for him especially Jon.*** I had some awesome support from the folks on here and I can’t thank this community enough for the all help I’ve had, updates to come, as of now I have one tradescantia I think is safe, and also I have some Hoya cuttings that were with the tradescantia that I think might be safe, I will keep treating them with the insecticidal soap for now. Tomorrow I’m getting the end-all spray I’m hoping with this stuff and consistent use am and pm I can possibly save the remaining of my children. 😭❤️🩹😞 Big thank you for the help , shout out to @elisenavidad and @stephonicle ✨ without both you’re help I probably wouldn’t have noticed until it was WAY TO LATE. I have some experience with plants but never had much experience with thrips myself as an adult! New worst enemy. #thrips #thripsbegone #louisxvioasis #PestControl #plantICU #TradescantiaNanouk #Hoya #garfield UPDATE: the plant that infested my oasis was bought off market place on Facebook by a seller I thought I could trust I bought multiple syngoniums from them and they had my contact information, then did realize recently they had pest and didn’t contact me or inform me until I asked about it because the worst plant came from them. Please please please, Isolate your plants before integrating into your collection I can’t stress this enough it was my biggest mistake in this situation, even if you think you are clear always treat and isolate until you are CERTAIN. 9 12 Comments @Catplantaddict · 1Y I think one of my plants has thrips. 5 3 Comments @GR1M · 1Y Guys I have a huge problem. My plants have recently been hit with a nasty mealy bug/thrips infestation and it’s taking my plants faster than I can cure them. I have been spraying with neem oil for a few weeks now and have even showered off the white fuzz and did my best to get nooks and crannies. It genuinely seems to have gotten more aggressive and I’m ngl I came home and felt my heart sink.
