How can i get rid of these very small white bugs on my New Guinea Impatiens?
they eat mold in the soil. let it dry completely, they'll go away.



you could try soapy water, but that could also kill the impatiens if its too strong.
Reply:These could be mealy bugs; Impatiens are susceptible to them. Try using a cotton swab dipped in ordinary rubbing alcohol; touch it to the bugs and you should see results fairly quickly.
Reply:i think they are aphids but i dunno how to get them off.

oh! i just found out spray them with soapy water. =)
Reply:Liquid seven dust will do the job!
Reply:Purchase a package of lady bugs from your local nursery. They will eat those suckers.
Reply:Sounds like you have white fly, these are very small flying insects

there are sprays and dusts that should take care of them, check K-mart or other stores like K-mart
Reply:best way, is to use dish soap. mix it up with some water and your good to go! just make sure when you spary you get the underside of the plants leaves to.
