    Probably a scale worm. The scale insects that harm cactus plants are mainly cactus white shield scales. The female shell of the cactus white shield scale is round, grayish-white, slightly raised on the back, mm in diameter; The body of the female insect is flattened, about millimeters long, shaped like a melon seed kernel, pale yellowish white at first, and gradually turns light brown yellow later.

    The male is about 1 mm long, elongated, and white. Prevention and control measures: maintain a ventilated and light-transmitting ecological environment and inhibit the occurrence of white shield scales.

    When white shield scales occur in cactus plants cultivated in small quantities at home, the insect body can be removed with brushes, bamboo chips, toothpicks, etc. During the hatching period of nymphs, you can spray 40 times of emulsifiable concentrate and 1500 times of liquid. If the scale shell has been formed, systemic agents such as fubudan, ferperion and other systemic agents can be used.

    The method is: loosen the surface layer of the potting soil, take out some topsoil, sprinkle the agent evenly, and then cover the topsoil taken out, and water it thoroughly. The dosage is 3 carbofuran granules, flower pots with an inner diameter of 24 cm, 10-15 grams per pot; 5 ferdicarb granules (i.e. 5 aldicarb granules) 3-5 grams per basin.

    Aphids: There are many species of aphids, usually green, yellow, black, brown different, aphids occur all year round, generally the temperature is about 29 The fastest reproduction. They mostly gather on the buds, young leaves or young branches of the plant, endlessly sucking the sap, the branches and leaves of the damaged plant are yellow and deformed, the flower buds are corrupted, the flowering period is shortened, the flower volume is reduced, and the plant wilts and dies in severe cases.

    Prevention and control methods: bury 30 carbofuran or 30 dicarb granules in the potting soil at a depth of 5 to 10 cm, and it can be effective in 2 to 3 days (highly toxic, beware); Spray with 40 dimethoate 1000 times or 80 dichlorvos 1500 times; The aphid tobacco is soaked in 20 times water for 48 hours, then 20 times water and 1 10 washing powder are added and stirred, and the residue can be used for spraying; Washing powder, urea, and water are stirred into a mixture at a ratio of 1:4:l00, and then used to spray the plants, which can receive the effect of insecticide and fertilization.

    Regardless of pests and diseases, we should follow the policy of prevention over metallurgy, remove weeds in time, spray regularly (once every 20 days), and loosen the soil regularly. Due to the change of humidity and temperature, sometimes too humid, sometimes too dry, and the temperature fluctuates, which will promote the breeding of germs and insect pests. It is necessary to strengthen management, improve the cultivation environment, eliminate the breeding conditions of pests and diseases, and prevent problems before they occur.

    Specifically, you can go to "12582 Rural Information Communication" to check. They have cooperation with China Agricultural University, so they will have a lot of majors.

    1. Viral diseases:

    Symptoms: Cactus virus disease, the symptoms of different species vary greatly, mainly manifested by systematic mosaic and local necrosis.

    Mode of infection: Juice infection. During cultivation management such as grafting and branching, hands and utensils are contaminated with the juice of diseased plants, which can carry the virus to spread.

    Prevention and control methods: isolate or destroy diseased plants, and do not graft from diseased plants. For strains that may be infected, hand washing with soap and utensils should be taken care of when managing.

    2. Stem wither, stem rot:

    Symptoms: Mainly occur in the proximal stem, but also in the upper stems. The yellow-green patches of raw water stains gradually soften rot, leaving a dry outer skin or residual mandrel in the later stage, and the decay speed varies with different types of pathogens.

    Pathogenesis: Unsterilized garbage soil or vegetable garden soil is used in potting soil, and wounds caused by grafting, low temperature, freezing and insect damage are easy to induce decay.

    2. During the seedling period, 50% carbendazim 5 10 grams per square meter of bed should be mixed with fine dry soil, and the bottom pad should be covered. 3. At the beginning of the disease, spray 400 times of Pulik water or 1200 times of 20% methyl phosphate oil.

    3. Anthrax:

There are often faded green halos around the lesions, and as the disease progresses, the whole appears brown and rots.

    Onset conditions: severe disease during high temperature, high humidity and rainy weather.

    Prevention and control methods: 1. Horticultural control. In the early stage of the disease, if there are lesions, they should be dug up immediately, and part of the healthy tissue adjacent to the lesions should also be dug up, and then coated with sulfur powder or charcoal powder to dry the wound.

    2. Spray fungicides regularly to prevent diseases. Commonly used agents can choose 80% anthrax Fumei wettable powder 800 times liquid; 50% carbendazim wettable powder 500 800 times liquid; 50% methyl tobuzin wettable powder 500 800 times liquid; It can also be used with 1000 times of 75% chlorothalonil wettable powder and 1000 times of 70% methyl tobuzin wettable powder, and the control effect is better than that of single use.

    4. Cactus disease:

    Symptoms: Onset at the stem node. At first, it is green and water-soaked at the rhizome, and at the same time, the stem nodes are soft, the outer skin is sheepskin-like, and the internal tissues are mucus-like rot.

    Prevention and control methods: 1. Horticultural prevention and control, the same as cactus anthracnose. 2. At the beginning of the disease, spray 50% methyl copper 800 times, 35% ruixinazole copper wettable powder 800 times, 60% ethylphosphine aluminum 500 times, 70% ethylphosphine wettable powder 500 times, Pulik water 800 times, 58% redomite-manganese zinc 500 times, 64% alum 500 times, 56% Shanshui dispersible granules 800 times, 72% Kelu 1000 times.

    3. Prevention and control of scale insects:

    Due to the waxy shell on the body of adult scale worms, drug control often cannot achieve the expected effect, so more attention should be paid to prevention. The cultivation site should be kept clean, and when scale insects are found, bamboo pieces can be scraped in time, and branches with many insects can also be cut and burned.

    Drug scale control must be carried out shortly after the eggs hatch and the worm body has not yet grown a waxy shell, and it must be sprayed repeatedly to have an effect. The drugs used are usually mixed with 50% malathion 1000 times, 25% imithion EC 800 times, 40% dimethoate EC and 80% dichlorvos EC mixed with water 1000 times.
