    Hi,

    Try laying the plant and pot on it's side, then give the foilage a good shake to see if any bug drops out, then give it a good spray with an inscectide to get any of the "invisibles".

    I used to have one in a pot to try and "blue" it, I failed and it needed lots of water or else the foilage drooped, though nothing ever ate the foilage!

    Cheers! :gnthb:
