Getting rid of Scale Insects


My coffee plant has been infested with the scale insect! I have wiped them off and washed the plant with soap and water. I have also used a 'Safers' product which seems to work for a few days and then they come back. I actually think they never left!

Does anyone have any safe alternatives to rid my plant of scale? ( without throwing it out :) )

Thanks

  1. By the amount of comments I see no one has the ability to grow there own coffee. Could be that the bugs ate there plants. I am sure Tim will know how to get rid of the scale. Ask him next time you are getting a double double.
    Love You
