   My wife keeps her citrus trees in the greenhouse over the winter. This year,   
   they had a really bad infestation of mealy bugs, which leave a powdery white   
   residue on the leaves, as pictured in the link below.

   Does anyone have experience with this? If so, what is a good way to prevent it   
   or destroy it? When we move the trees outside in the spring, the problem   
   quickly goes away.   
      
   Thanks for any help,
