The mealy bugs totally ruin my million bells and my salvias every year. Spraying with alcohol kills them and Raid kills them, but both of these sprays damage the leaves after a while. I would also like to do the job with something that will not kill my butterflies or praying mantis. (Yeah, I know that butterflies are killed by praying mantis, but they don't get that many of them and are good for getting the bad insects.)
I would surely welcome your suggestions.
