    If the small white worm is a scale insect like cotton, it is recommended that you wipe it off with cotton fiber or a soft cloth first, and then spray a little insecticide; If it is a small white worm that can run, you can use some insecticides directly.

    If it is a white bug, it should most likely be a scale worm.

    Prevention should be the main focus on scale insects. It is necessary to always pay attention to the inspection of the plant, find insect pests, and eliminate them as soon as possible to prevent the spread.

    When the disease of Junzi Orchid occurs, it can be treated with artificial and drug treatment. If only 1 or 2 leaf tips are found to be infestation, they can be scraped by hand, sharpened with thin wooden strips or removed with bamboo skewers.

    If a large number of insects appear, they can be sprayed with 2-imidothion emulsion solution, or dimethoate emulsion, which can be killed by spraying 1 or 2 times.

    Extended information: The body wall surface of the scale insect may be hardened with 1 layer of hard shell, or have powdery waxy secretions (or body wax secretions are white powdery, glassy, or tan shell-like, and therefore secrete waxy shells, and females have no eyes, no feet, and no antennae. Males have well-developed feet, antennae and wings, and are parthenogenetic or hermaphroditic, and some species are important pests.

    Common shapes are round, oval, linear, or oyster-shaped. The larvae have short legs, and the young can move to feed, and the longer legs are degraded and sedentary. The common ones are red scale, brown scale, Kang scale, sagittal scale and blow scale scale and so on.

    In addition, the secretion of scale insects can also cause soot disease.

    The female adults of scale insects are all wingless, and the division of the head, thorax, and abdomen is not obvious, and the appearance appears to be similar to that of nymphs, some of which are only larger, while others have distinctly different body colors.

    It is estimated that it should be a flea fly.

    Larvae, due to the fact that the pots often pour tea leaves, wash rice water.

    Milk, buckle egg shells and other substances, which cause fermentation, are just right for small flies.

    Flea flies, mushroom flies, etc. reproduce and grow, and a spray can only kill a part of the adults, and the eggs in the soil will hatch, so it is always in a steady stream, and it is difficult to break the roots. So, it's best to start with the breeding base.

    Take 50 grams of citrus peel, add 500 grams of water and soak for 24 hours, filter and pour the filtrate into the soil.

    Pepper liquid: Take 50 grams of chili pepper and add 10 times water to boil for 20 minutes, then filter and put to room temperature, and pour into the soil.

    2. Homemade insecticides:

    Soil pests such as ants and nematodes.
