Tiny bugs on Chinese Evergreen

hoodie6029 · 2018-10-10 21:00:25

Hi, First time poster in the Gardening forum. I've a Chinese Evergreen and noticed some really tiny bugs on the leaves this evening. I think they're eating the leaves. I'd post a picture of them but they are really specks. Anyone have any idea what they are and how to get rid of them? Thanks in advance.

Very difficult to get rid of bugs on Chinese Evergreen without spraying. I'd try a homemade solution of water and alcohol first before resorting to branded chemical treatments. Also applying a mineral oil also helps but dilute it in water first to ensure it won't harm the plant.
