Description

Red mites & Spider mites feed on the leaves and flowers of many field, fruit and vegetable crops, and ornamental plants. Red mites, Spider mites feed by sucking cell sap from leaves and succulent twigs. The symptoms of feeding damage caused by Red mites & Spider mites include mottled and speckled appearances of leaves, yellowing, eventually drying of leaves and twigs. While feeding, both adults and nymphs of Red mites, Spider mites also produce webbing that reduces aesthetic value of many ornamental plants. Speckling of leaves also affects the process of photosynthesis in which plants make their own food by using sunlight energy to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water. The most common host plants include bean, canola, cotton, citrus, cucumber, eggplant, melon, peanut, pepper, capsicums & chill plantation, strawberries, potato, soybean, tomato, azalea, camellia, hollies, ligustrum, roses and viburnum.
