I do not really know what they are trying to do with my Ixora plants but their arrival make my plant seldom flowers and looks so unhealthy! The leaves are browning and the stem are turning black.
Look at the branch of Ixora!
The flowers have reduce so much now!
Oh no...so sad. Normally the ant will eat the root, flower bud and also the the new leafs. You need to take the fast action to save your plant. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteYes ants can be a real pain if they are into a plant.

Well Malar, I have yet to try and chase them away with garlic solution spray. Perhaps you should try them?
ReplyDeleteMosquito spray should silence them for a while, very handy for most people. I used to clean infected plants by water jet, and soap, like washing a car!
ReplyDeleteOrchid: I ahte them for all what they are doing!

I shall try your suggestion! Ants are really pest in my garden
No no no, don't mosquito spray them. Please don't, I'm just spreading the love. It will get rid of them but will harm the plants and stunt its growth. Worse in my case, the mosquito spray is my prime suspect for killing all my patin fish in the system. Use very mild soap solution or garlic/chilli solution and always spray at dusk not during the day.
