Happy Holy Saturday everyone 💛 My yellow hibiscus opened two big flowers last night. Such a perfect timing!

It's actually a miracle that this hibiscus is still alive. I've had problems with some very stubborn pests for a couple of years now (second photo). These guys only live on hibiscus, I've never seen them on any other plants. I've tried pine soap, two different kinds of pest poison, burned match sticks in the soil and of course regular showers, but nothing has helped for more than max 1-2 weeks. So now I'm wondering if anyone here knows how to get rid of flower bugs? ATM I have given up and the bugs are winning, so I would really appreciate some educated advice!

These pests looks a bit like thrips. I recommend checking some tutorial videos on how to treat these so you can get better understanding of the whole treatment. What I have understood you can use systemic poison and you need to repeat the treatment at least few times, or you can buy specific bugs that eat thrips. This is actually really popular treatment type even though it might feel a bit weird 🙈
@sannasoi Thank you, I will look up that!
