From the Grower:
In the nursery, mealybugs have only been observed on Monstera deliciosa once or twice in many years.
Caterpillars and one type of snail are the main problems found in the nursery setting. The problem snail is the large Cuban Brown Snail. This snail is not supposed to be shipped with any plant, but it can happen. The Cuban Brown Snail is active at night and can do significant damage to a plant in one night. A large CBN can eat multiple whole leaves in one night. If you see this type of damage, usually accompanied by a squiggly pile of snail excrement, look in the top 1 inch of soil for the snail. If you find one crush it. Don't worry we have more and you don't want this snail where you live. Also, please call us and let us know as this is a situation we try hard to avoid.
