spider mite – one of the most common and dangerous plant pests. Very small reddish-orange insects. They live on the underside of leaves under a net of the finest cobwebs. They feed on the sap of leaves, which gradually turn yellow and acquire “marbling”.
Methods of struggle
Pollination of plants with sulfur or dust from a gauze bag. To be more effective, this should be done on a sunny day. You can spray the leaves from the underside with cold water at the same time as pollination. [1]
