Re: strange spots on cacti
The dots with the reddish centre look like scale bugs. The larger ones just scars by the looks of them.
And as the walls come down and as I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade recalling all of the times
I have died and will die.
It's all right.
I dont mind

Re: strange spots on cacti
Check out the recent posts on pesticides if you want to use them. I would pick of the scale bugs they will come off faily easily, the scars just ignore nothing much that can be done for those.
