Salt Those Slugs
Slugs and snails are soft bodied pests, that eat our plants, and leave slime in their wake of destruction.
One way to get rid of them is to take warm salty water, and spray them with it using a spray bottle. They will shrivel up when the salt hits their body.
Wash Bugs Off Plants
Remove as many insects as possible with a strong stream of water. In the case of clinging scale insects, you might have to use a soapy cloth or toothbrush to wipe the plant clean. If the plant is small enough, it is even more effective to submerge the foliage in water. Fill a bucket or sink with lukewarm water. Then place a rag, or a piece of paper over the top of the pot to hold the soil in place. Next, with your fingers spread around the plant's stem, turn the plant upside down, and swish the leaves in water for two or three minutes.
Spraying Plants
Spray the foliage with a diluted spray made of a natural soap such as ivory. Be sure to cover the entire plant, wetting both sides of the leaves so the soap comes in direct contact with the pests.
Don't spray in sunlight, and again, be sure to let the plant dry in a shaded location. Mealy-bugs and spider mites may require a second spraying a few days later. For delicate plants, try dabbing the pests with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol, which will kill the insects by dehydrating their them. Rinse the plant with water afterward.
