    I went to water my kalenchoe and it has mites(?) Little black moving spots and the leaves are very sticky. Can I just spray them with water and wipe them off or do I need to do something else? Thanks! dooley

    Try soapy water dooley.You may ad a little veggie oil to make it stick.

    Glenda's idea is a good one Dooley as it's exactly what I use here on my plants. Let's hope those little black bugs all die off soon and don't do any damage to your plant.
