Good morning, beautiful people! It's a sad thing to see a desert rose suffering and not knowing what to do, watching it die, isn't it? But if we know and act very quickly, it's possible to avoid the worst. With the bedbug = or the maria fidida, an insect that loves the bitterness of the sap of our roses, the solution is to ACT FAST. If you do nothing, if you delay, the damage is certain, the plant will fall apart in a few days. Not only here in Brazil, look how voracious they are in Africa too, there in Mozambique. In the land of the DR, they have a party. But here we can avoid it. On the plant, cut the affected part until you find healthy tissue, and then seal it well with instant glue or cinnamon powder. In the garden, or greenhouse, or bench, HUNT RELENTLESSLY. If you notice a few bedbugs, crush them with your hands, look under each leaf, inspect each plant. Did you notice that there are several? Use a spray like SBP home and garden = which is water-based, or any ready-to-use insecticide, which you can find in flower shops, pet shops or agricultural stores. But don't let him have his fun, the damage is sad to see.
