What's eating my euphorbia decaryi?

Euphorbia decaryi, a compact Madagascan succulent, is most threatened indoors by mealybugs sheltering in its corrugated leaf folds. Spider mites and scale insects also attack during dry conditions. Its toxic milky latex deters most casual pests, but sap-suckers still target it. Inspect crevices regularly and treat early.

Hard or waxy brown bumps on stems; yellowing foliage; sticky honeydew attracting sooty mould Scrape off scales with a soft toothbrush; apply 70% isopropyl alcohol with a cotton swab; follow up with a neem oil spray every 10 days
