With insecticide.
It would be a shame given the discussion on the forum if the Preston-Mafham, Alfred Lau legally collected seed and plants were to die.

And therein lies the dichotomy
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Quick before the society is closed down(just kidding 
)
Get your old and new plants here, plenty of cacti to suit all ranges of skills from absolute beginner to expert.
The two photos show Copiapoa in all its various forms apart apart from the first which have two different but largish Denmozas.

Some nice Mammillaria available, the wooden ruler is a is an old 12" one to match the age of the plant.
Using Ralph's excellent Field Number Database REP978 = 1975.
