G Day Mary I think you"ll find that your Mealy Bugs, in line with your
space suit , will turn into a Delta wing bomber locally know as the
Passionfruit vine hopper . Whack on your space suit & hit them with some
Rogor if you are really serious . They seem to be out there in Ghengis
Khan proportions this year probably due to the drought. I haven't seen
any disasterous effects from them ,except that they get up your nose .
We have had an inch of rain ,everything but the traffic noise has
quietened down even the white cockatoos . We now will have to look out
for fungus with this steaminess ,especially in the seedling boxes Kind

Thanks for the info I think that I am going to have to bring in the
'nasties' as the infestation is severe :( Probably need to think along the
line of a systemic applied very often for a few times and then maybe things
will be back to a manageable level where I can use an alchohol/water mix to
spot spray. Will have to rug up like I am about to take a space walk to do
it though :( About ready to consign the lot to the rubbish skip actually.
