Can anyone help me save my home and office potted palms from a parasite?
I have areca palms (or perhaps Golden Cane Palms, or Butterfly Palms, or Chrysalidocarpus Lutescens, or perhaps even Dypsis Lutescens - I'm not quite sure) all over my home and office… and they're all slowly succumbing to a scaly parasite. I have some photos up at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/107056/images/CIMG4440.JPG, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/107056/images/CIMG4441.JPG, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/107056/images/CIMG4442.JPG, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/107056/images/CIMG4443.JPG, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/107056/images/CIMG4444.JPG, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/107056/images/CIMG4445.JPG, and http://dl.dropbox.com/u/107056/images/CIMG4446.JPG.
I'd love not to use anything particularly toxic… but, it has to be toxic enough to kill the thing eating my plants
