Protecting Your Cacti from Pests and Diseases

Inspect your cacti regularly for signs of pests such as mealybugs or spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot and fungal diseases. Provide good air circulation around your cacti to reduce the risk of mold and mildew. Quarantine new cacti to prevent introducing pests to your existing collection.
