There are generally three types of insects on gardenia leaves. The first type is "aphids", which can be removed manually in the early stage, and in the mid-term, pesticides or mosquito coils can be used. The second type is "scale insects", which require special potions and lime powder. The third type is "red spider", which needs to be prevented in the early stage. Treatment can be done by washing with water or using chemicals.

1. Aphids

1. Aphids

1. Introduction: It is the most important insect pest, causing damage to roots, stems and other parts.

2. Treatment: Adjust the treatment method according to different periods. If it is in the early stages, you can rinse the plants directly with clean water. If they are not rinsed, wipe them clean with a cloth. Be careful to get rid of them completely, otherwise they will multiply quickly. If the disease is severe and the number of insects is very large, then you need to use medicine, such as trichlorfon. Or smoke it with smoke and use mosquito coils.

2. Scale insects

1. Introduction: They will not only directly harm the plants, but also indirectly cause sooty disease, so they must be dealt with in time.

2. Treatment: In the early stage, pests can be exterminated with chlormethionine powder. If the situation becomes more serious, they can be eliminated by spreading lime powder. After most of the bugs have been eliminated, place the plant in a shaded, windy location. Also pay attention to drainage, which can promote plant recovery and prevent insect damage.

3. Red Spider

1. Introduction: It will cause the leaves to turn yellow and the plant to grow poorly. It usually appears on the back of the leaves.

2. Treatment: Prevention is very important. The temperature should not be too high and the light should not be too strong, otherwise red spider mites will easily breed. After discovering them, you can flush them away with clean water if the quantity is small, or you can use water soaked in cigarette butts. When the quantity is large, pharmaceuticals can be used, such as omethoate.
