Azalea - broad mite injury Broad mites are very tiny tarsonemid mites difficult to see even with
a hand lens. Often they will cause a downward curling of the margins
of leaves, such as seen here on azalea. Use materials specifically labeled
for broad mite control since not all miticides for spider mites will
be effective. |
