How you can stop spider mite damage
Spider mite damage begins with yellowing and white flecking on leaves and is hard to detect. Check leaf undersides for mites or webbing with a hand lens or by tapping branches over a white sheet. Strong water sprays, repeated regularly, reduce mites, webs and dust. If using insecticides, pick selective products such as insecticidal soap or oil and avoid hot weather or stressed plants. Contact the Extension Office at 272-3670, 501 S. 9th Street, Garden City, for help.
