    hello! a friend of mine just moved out to Newark CA and her fiance bought her a lovely group of succulents.

    the other day she messages me, saying her succulents were having troubles. being from the northeast i haven't become familiar with succulent pests, nor have i gotten a chance to put my succulents outside, so i told her i'd try and get some second opinions.

    she had them outside on her front steps, but she started to see patches on them and some white bugs. she took them inside and sent me these pictures. the white bugs are gone, and she says there are now black ones (the black specks). is there anything she can do/watch out for.

    I said maybe spraying the plant with soapy water might do something, but if anyone from that area has any input that would be fantastic.

    thanks
    heather
