What to do if white pine is infested with insects

White pine long insect

I haven't visited the little pine tree for two days. I was shocked when I saw it today. The little pine tree, which was in good condition before, is no longer in good condition. It has black insect feces all over its body, and many branches have been bitten off. I was really confused for a moment! If it is not sprayed with pesticides or treated in time, the leaves of the white pine will gradually become hollow and the entire plant will collapse.

What are the insects of white pine?

This is a very small insect, usually a white aphid, smaller than a sesame seed. In the early stage, only a few will appear on the leaves, which will not have a big impact, but gradually they will cover the branches and leaves densely. Aphids mainly feed on the branches and leaves of the white-flowered pine and leave secretions, which cause dark brown spots to appear on the leaves. They are very harmful and can cause you heavy losses.

Pest control of white pine

Flower Protector is a commonly used pesticide for succulent pests. Spray it in time when pests are found. If you have children at home, try to spray the pesticide outdoors. After all, it is a pesticide and has a certain degree of toxicity.
