Sago Palm - Scale Infestation

10 years ago

I have a small sago palm that I bought last fall. It has contracted a terrible scale infestation. I remove 2 whole fronds because the infestation was so bad. I sprayed the other remaining fronds with a strong jet of water, then picked off the rest of the leftover scale, also trimmed parts of the fronds with bad infestation. It has been growing 3 new fronds, just now hardening off. I want to stop the scale from coming back/spreading. What should I do? It is a potted plant, not regular cycad scale. looks like this:

except on palm fronds.
