Hello everyone,
I know this is not directly related to gardening. But since it’s a question about a plant, I wasn’t sure where else to post it.
We have had an Aralia in our hallway for a few weeks now.

It has recently developed a peculiar infestation.
Some of the leaves are becoming blotchy.

And they are actually rotting away.

Does anyone know what this could be and how we can treat it?
We aren’t particularly attached to the plant, but it would be nicer to keep it if possible.
Best regards,
Tarnari

Could it possibly be woolly aphids? We had something similar on a plant that was kept in too dark a place.Woolly aphids look like this 😀 we have some here 😀

Get predatory mites and parasitic wasps.
They basically eliminate everything.Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, but am I supposed to get those creatures or something to get rid of these creatures? Do you actually want parasitic wasps and mites inside your house?

You should get the creatures. They are available at the big river.
These are beneficial insects that feed on the larvae of most pests.
When the pests are gone, they die too. Simple as that. As I said, sorry for the silly question. Even with houseplants? So no parasitic wasps flying around the house afterward?
