Cottony Cushion Scales | | |
The Cottony Cushion Scale is native to Australia and come to  California around 1869.
It is now widespread and is in most counties of Florida.
The Cottony Cushion Scale can severely damage citrus trees by sucking sap from the leaves, branches and trunk.
To help control the Cottony Cushion Scale from destroying California's citrus industry in the 1890's, Australia sent the Vedalia Beetle.
 The Vedalia Beetle and Parasitic Fly Cryptochaetum iceryae are natural enemies of the Cottony Cushion Scale. If you see the beetle and/or fly on a tree with the Cottony Cushion Scale, you do not need insecticide treatments. The Cottony Cushion Scale will be gone soon.
In fact, some insecticides will kill the Vedalia Beetle and not the Cottony Cushion Scale.

Did Cold Weather Damage Your Palm Trees?
| | |
Do not immediately trim the damaged leaves. As long as any green tissue remains, the leaf should not be removed.
Damaged leaves may provide protection during the cold nights.
Once the plant has 2 or 3 new leaves, then the damaged leafs can be removed. If the trunk has external damage, it is likely there is internal damage and the plant must be removed.
Be patient. It may be 4 to 7 months until the new growth emerges and some may be malformed or damaged. Within a year, you will have normal leaves. |
