Q. As the weather starts changing, I want to bring my plants in from my patio. I bought several at a plant sale last month. I noticed small bugs on the leaves and wonder if I will end up with bugs in my house if I bring the plants in.
Is there something I can do to de-bug my plants? I am also worried about using insecticides to get rid of the pests, since the smell for my cat may become a problem later. What do you think?

A. De-bug or not de-bug, that is de-question. Outdoor plants get the full benefit of nature
