I have a scientific name, called Tsubaki, please don't call me Fart Worm again! Stinky Big Sister! ... It's Tsubaki! Tsubaki Elephant! Tsubaki Elephant! Say important things three times! I don't want to have anything to do with stink, just because I have stinky farts, many people forget my real name, so please remember to call me Tsubaki!
No one naturally likes to be a pest, right? At first I was told to eat citrus, but I refused! But when I was too hungry to do it, I still couldn't hold back! I usually sneak up on the fruit in the morning and evening, suck the juice of the citrus fruit with my mouth, and then run away or hide when I am full, so that the orange farmers will generally find me very difficult. The citrus fruit that I stole from the outside did not look out of place, but soon the fruit would turn yellow and fall off. I sometimes eat the branches, but I only eat the fresh and tender parts, suck the juice of the young parts, and the branches that I eat almost will have the branches withering, but it is still quite similar to the disease, so many orange farmers think it is a disease, and I easily avoid the disaster.
This is no way ah, who called us Tsubaki family from August to October is the peak period of growth and reproduction, and citrus is also growing rapidly, autumn shoots are also growing vigorously, eat a little should be no problem!
Great green bug nymph infestation
If you want to talk about our whole family, it may be impossible to count in a moment and a half, no way, the genes are too good, the family population is huge! There are more than 70 kinds of citrus that like to eat, but the most favorite citrus is mainly the four main ones: long-snout bugs, rice green bugs, hemp skin bugs and tea wing bugs. If the family hadn't been so big and ate less, the orange farmers might not have hated us so much.
The elder snout bug also has another name called the big green bug, he is the most fond of citrus, 5-10 months he will come out to steal, 7-8 months is when he has the highest number of children (nymphs), 9-10 months is the time when he eats citrus with his children (adult worms) growing up.
Long-snout bugs
The old rice green bug is slightly smaller than the old long-snout bug, and has three shapes, all green, yellow shoulder and yellow wing, and prefers fruit and young fruits from August to September.

Old three hemp skin bugs, some people also call her flower sister, ma chun elephant, hemp skin bugs can be said to fly all over the country, many places can see her figure, August to October for the activity is more frequent, like to smoke citrus, resulting in fruit falling off.
Hemp skin bugs
Old four tea wing bugs, also known as stinkpanworms, although it is the fourth old, but the harm is very powerful, the citrus young fruits he has smoked, the surface is uneven, the victim becomes hard and bitter or the flesh is tung. Moreover, the most powerful thing about the tea wing bug is that it pretends to be dead (suspended death) and is very sensitive, if someone comes near him, he will quickly hide, fly away, or pretend to be dead and fall to the ground.
Tea wing bugs
My least favorite weather is rainy days, because I don't like to move on rainy days, so I'm afraid of orange farmers coming out and grabbing me in the morning, at night, or on a rainy day.
In addition to hating rainy days, I was also afraid of some pesticides, such as chlorpyrifos, high-efficiency cypermethrin, cypermethrin, avermectin and other agents, which would kill me. But I have a suspended death, if the orange farmers do not spray carefully when they control it, and the hidden places of the trunks on the ground are sprayed, I still have a chance to save my life!
Eh! How did you start spraying ~ I haven't finished talking about it. you...... You actually added the natural brassica sustenum 481 that can enhance the efficacy and avoid the harm of medicine... Uh...【Tsubaki Elephant Pawn】
