About this episode
Mealybugs are one of the most common and hard-to-treat pests you'll encounter as a houseplant grower, so it's high time we devoted a whole episode to these furry terrors! I interview entomologist Dr Raymond Cloyd to find out what they are and how to get rid of them. Plus, I answer a question about a droopy Calathea.
