Leaf Beetle

Pest symptoms

Leaf beetles are generally more common in tropical regions. But this kind of pest also occurs in our country in summer. Everyone should also be careful and preventive. They often gnaw on the leaves, leaving them unrecognizable and destroying the ornamental effect of the plant.

Prevention and treatment methods

Artificial capture and the addition of pesticides are two-pronged prevention and control measures. Once leaf beetles are found, they should be captured and killed immediately. Then spray the plants with pesticides to prevent the larvae from continuing to grow and harm the plants. The pesticide can be sprayed with 3000 times diluted 2.5% dimethoate.
