Every year at this time,two large boxwoods become infested with what I think are mealybugs...white specks cover each crack and crevice of the plant...when a branch is shaken, flakes fall down like dandruff. I know mealybugs on my houseplants look like ball of cotton...this does not but it doesn't fly like whiteflies....what do you think? I spray them off with the hose but that doesn't do much...this is a perennial infestation...thanks in advance for any help...
