Need help please
So I have a bamboo, no not a cactus but I really need help with this one. Plus there bugs so nothing to do with the plant really. So I got really tiny white bugs that are making little webs, my guess is spider mites but not sure. So bamboo is sitting outside where it shouldn't be. I don't want to bring it in until I get rid of the bugs. Any ideas on how to get rid of these bugs? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you get a picture? It sounds a heck of a lot like Mealybug. If it is, get some Bayer Tree and Shrub care, or similar pesticide containing Imidacloprid and do a soil soak. The good thing about bamboo is it is a fast grower so it should take up the pesticide and start working more quickly than it does with cactus.

I didn't get a chance to take a picture, but did treat it and it seemed to work. If they do return though I will definitely take a picture and post again. Thank you
