hey - do you use any preventive sprays for bugs? I read the below is good to use, but should I not do anything unless I see bugs?
also, ive read about using either qtip and alcohol for mealy bugs or a homemade castille soap with water concoction, but is all of that not necessary unless you're seeing bugs? i will say that i see some little flying gnat type bugs above the soil on my pothos, what should i use for that?
