What medicine is most effective for scale insects? What other methods are there?

1. What medicine to use

1. Methidathion: This is a commonly used insecticide. It is relatively safe and has good effects. It can remove a series of insects. The disadvantage is that it has a strong smell and is quite pungent. Please pay attention to this if you use it at home.

2. Thiamethoxam: It has relatively low toxicity, has no effect on the human body, and can effectively kill insects. It can be used in combination with other agents to kill insects, and the effect will be better.

3. Silicone penetrant: It has tension and can penetrate into the pores of plants. It has a long-lasting effect and will not be affected by rain. It can assist the other two agents in completely penetrating insect eggs and kill them. In addition to spraying the leaves, you should also wet the surface of the potting soil and add clean water to irrigate the roots.

2. What other methods are there?

1. Alcohol: In addition to medicines, you can also use a homemade method. Add clean water to the alcohol. Note that the proportion of clean water should be large. Then pour it into the root position and wipe the leaves. This will be safer.

2. Vinegar: Vinegar is very suitable for plants that like an acidic environment. Mix vinegar with water and wipe the leaves.

3. Salt water: You can also dip a brush in salt water and slowly wipe the leaves.
