I keep my Spathoglottis plicata outside, so naturally it's subject to a few native pests. I've noticed ants having a field day just hangin around the flower buds. Maybe they think they'll find nectar of some sort? They don't do any visible damage, but I would just rather they left the buds and flowers alone. I've investigated a bit and it seems as if they are not living in the large pot, just commuting from their colony and spending the day on my plant. Can I spray with something to get them to leave the plant alone? Like rose bud spray or something? I definitely want to minimize chemical damage to the developing flowers. Plus, the longer I let them hang out, the more I think they will decide to set up shot in the pot soil. Thanks for any suggestions.
