Some tips:
When taking cuttings, walk around with a bucket of cool, soapy water and toss each cutting in, swish the cutting around. That probably helps hydrate the cutting as well as killing or removing bugs before they get into the house. I also add a little systemic insecticide to each cup of soil before I stick the cutting.
