Citrus red spider mite is one of the main pests of citrus. It mainly harms the leaves of citrus. The affected leaves have many small gray-white spots. When severely damaged, the entire leaf becomes gray-white and loses its luster. If prevention and control measures are not effective in early stage, the red spider mites will reappear and cause serious damage to the leaves. This can lead to a large amount of leaf fall, and seriously affect the tree vigor and yield for the following year.
Due to the frequent occurrence, rapid outbreak, long occurrence period, and serious damage of the red spider mites, growers are forced to spend a huge amount of labors and money to control and prevent red spider mites. Any negligence can ruin all previous efforts.
Suggestions for the prevention and control of red spider mites:
1. Once red spider mites are found, grower must spray miticide in time, as any delay may result in the breakout of pests.
2. If it was not controlled in the early stage and red spider mites have broken out, it is necessary to spray miticide again. After spraying, wait for 5-7 days and spray again, continue to spray for 2-3 rounds to avoid another infestation after the hatching of red spider mite eggs.
3. Ensure enough water and spray thoroughly when spraying pesticides. Red spider mite eggs are generally laid on the back of the leaves and in the grooves of the branches, which is not conducive to pesticide coverage. Therefore, when spraying, be meticulous and careful, and do not miss any areas.
4. The resistance of red spider mites is increasing, so the right pesticide must be chosen.
