Well, mine (mainly Dionaea and Sarracenia kept outdoor) just got a dose of Provanto Smart Bug Killer for aphids, some insects are too small for them...

Can any birds be trained to eat mealy bugs, I wonder?

The Galapagos Finch might be your only hope.

I read something about someone keeping zebra Finches in a greenhouse. My friend breeds them so hoping to try a few in a section of the new greenhouse to see if they keep the pests down or destroy the cacti and succulents and become feathered pests of their own!
