The world's pest "whitefly", commonly known as the small white moth, wants to remove it and sprays chili pepper water directly
Are there no pests in the cold temperature in winter? It is not so, although the temperature in winter is low, the flowers and grasses raised at home will still be infested by insects, aphids and white mealworms will freeze to death in winter, and there is a pest called "whitefly" that will continue to damage the plants at home, especially camellias, rhododendrons are deeply affected in winter, and sometimes yellow leaves appear, that is, whiteflies are at work.
Whitefly after winter, female whitefly will lay eggs on the back of the leaves of the plant, very small egg worms, a large number, the temperature at home reaches 15 degrees -20 degrees, the egg bugs of the whitefly hatched out, nibbling on the leaves of the plant, absorbing the water in the leaves, in a few days, the flowers and leaves at home will begin to yellow, and the whole flower will be damaged.
My family raised 2 pots of camellias, autumn is still good, the leaves are very oily green and green have begun to play buds, in recent days the leaves are all yellow, starting from the bottom, a large number of leaves began to yellow, at first thought that it was frozen by the low temperature, until the time of watering, only to find that the bottom of the leaves gathered a large number of whiteflies, all hatched out, two camellias are not spared.
Whitefly is what we usually call the small white moth, the size of a large grain of rice, can fly, gently shake the leaves with your hands, soon flew away, the harm to indoor plants is quite large, I was also the first to see this pest, sprayed 2 times insecticide, all to no avail, whitefly is still dense, it is helpless, directly used the most primitive insecticidal method.
For this kind of agent can not kill the insects, can only use pepper noodles, before the family planted cabbage, green insects are not dead, can only sprinkle pepper noodles, the effect of insect repellent is very good, whitefly gathered on the back of the plant leaves, pepper noodles can not be sprinkled, with pepper mixed with water, super spicy paprika dissolved in water, it is best to dissolve with hot water, poured in a watering can, sprayed on the back of the leaves.
The mouthparts of the whitefly are the same as mosquitoes, the back of the leaf is sprayed with chili water, the whitefly can not eat, soon died, this way is more than the insecticide to use, but the leaves of the plant will also have some damage, spray pepper water in the morning, spray again with water in the evening, do not let the pepper water accumulate on the back of the leaf for a long time.
Winter flowers, insect pests will still have, many times, the flowers raised at home appear yellow leaves, in fact, is not the cause of maintenance, may be caused by insect pests, pay attention to more observation, to prevent insect pests from causing damage to plants.
