Whiteflies

Whiteflies are tiny white insects that usually gather on the undersides of leaves.

When an affected branch is disturbed, the adults often fly into the air.

Signs of Whiteflies

Look for tiny white flying insects, sticky leaves, yellowing foliage, weak growth, or small insects and immature stages underneath leaves.

What to Do

Inspect and treat the undersides of the foliage thoroughly.

Appropriate insecticidal soaps or other approved treatments may be necessary for persistent infestations.

Several treatments may be required because different life stages can be present simultaneously.
