What's eating my alocasia ivory coast?

Alocasia Ivory Coast, prized for its dramatic dark foliage with pale venation, is most vulnerable to spider mites and mealybugs indoors. Thrips can also scar the decorative leaves. Consistent humidity, monthly leaf wiping with a damp cloth, and neem oil preventatively are the key defense strategies.

Pale stippling and a dusty sheen on leaf surfaces; fine webbing between leaves in severe cases Shower leaves thoroughly, increase ambient humidity, treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap weekly

White waxy deposits in leaf axils and on stems; sticky residue and leaf yellowing Spot-treat with isopropyl alcohol on a swab, then apply neem oil as a full plant spray

Silvery streaking and distorted leaf edges; small dark frass spots on the underside Use insecticidal soap or spinosad spray; remove heavily damaged leaves and repeat treatment weekly
