Rose Aphid
The classic of April in the buds. Same family as the tomato, same protocol.
PillarCockroaches
The gel reaches the hiding place. The spray kills the visible ones and scares off the rest into the false ceiling.
PillarSoil Mosquito
The adult is a nuisance; the larva feeds on fine roots of seedlings. The cause is overwatering.
PillarThrips
Narrow insects on flowers. Damage includes scraping and, worse, the viruses they can carry.
PillarTomato Caterpillar
Fruit with a clean hole and remnants inside: caterpillar. Look at night on the underside.
PillarSlugs and Snails
They feed at night and hide in poorly tensioned mesh, under pots, and in the grass at the edge.
PillarMealybug
Sticky cotton balls in clusters. They need to be touched, do not 'fog the air'.
PillarRed Spider Mite
It's not an insect: it's a mite. Soap spray on the underside and increasing humidity help.
PillarWhitefly
The white cloud when moving the leaf is the adult. The nymphs on the underside are the real problem.
PillarAphid
Soft insects on shoots and undersides. Honeydew, ants, and viruses. Act at the first curl.
PillarAnts in the Garden and Orchard
How to identify ants in the orchard, why they protect aphids, and what professional treatments to use.
