White Bugs


I found this weird looking bug on my geraniums, not sure who he is, or whether he is friend of foe. Anyone got any ideas?

Looks like a Mealybug, it'll suck your plant dry.

Whatever your preferred method of bug control should probably be employed unless you like dry, waxy covered plants.

Yes, looks like a mealybug. You can clear them away by applying rubbing alcohol to them with q-tips if there are only a few of them, or if you're patient.
