What's eating my lace flower vine?

Lace Flower Vine is a delicate trailing Episcia grown indoors for its white fringed flowers. Mealybugs are the most common threat, clustering on its creeping stems and runners. Spider mites appear in dry conditions. The plant's preference for high humidity protects it somewhat but requires vigilance against fungal issues and sap-sucking insects.

White waxy clusters on stems, stolons, and leaf bases; sticky honeydew and weakened flowering Dab each colony with a rubbing-alcohol swab; spray the entire plant with diluted neem oil; repeat every 7 days until clear

Fine stippling or bronzing on leaf surfaces; delicate webbing across leaf joints in severe cases Raise humidity with a pebble tray or humidifier; apply insecticidal soap spray to all surfaces; repeat weekly for 3 cycles

Root feeding by larvae causes wilting and poor growth; adult flies hover around potting mix Avoid waterlogging; allow the surface to dry; treat with Bti soil drench; use yellow sticky traps for adults
