So long as it's not wilted. I'd be more worried about it dying of shock after the travel then the soil change. Anyway you've nothing to lose by giving it a chance.
Forceps? That seems mad. Why not just spray it down with soapy water?
>>2935 Aphids fucked my two kalenchoes despite me using everything advised, they're like little terminators and just keep coming back somehow out of thin air. Months on and I still have to check them daily and I'm still finding 3-5 a week on one of them. Nothing seems to have worked and I've given up at this point. I tried a chemical bug spray specifically for aphids on one, and while it's been the most aphid free, it's stopped growing and looks like it's dying. Can't seem to bloody win.
>>2951 It could be because you're over-watering it, or under watering it, over-feeding it or under-feeding it. Does it get enough light? It's quite pale.
