- Spray an organic insecticide. For an organic solution, spray a diluted mixture of azadirachtin, a compound derived from neem seeds, above and below leaves.
- Spray a synthetic insecticide. Spray a product that contains spinosad, such as Entrust, making sure to cover all sides of the leaves.
- Introduce beneficial insects. Introduce beneficial insects that eat leaf miners, such as parasitic wasps or Syrphid flies.
- Prune infected tissue. Remove and dispose of leaves that have any sign of leaf miner damage.

- Physically exclude adults. Cover plants with floating row covers as soon as you put them in the ground.
- Remove weeds and debris. Keep your garden weeded to lower the number of plants leaf miners can feed and breed on.
- Avoid introducing infected plants. Carefully inspect new plants for leaf miners before adding them to your garden or home.
- Avoid broad-spectrum pesticides. Leaf miners can usually be controlled by natural predatory insects. Do not apply broad-spectrum insecticides that could harm these beneficial insects.






- Wilted, droopy flowers
- Petals and leaves begin to wrinkle
- Brown papery streaks or spots appear on the petals and leaf tips
- Flowerhead shrink in size
- Petal color fades
- Yellowing leaves
- Complete death of the flower



- Water plants according to their needs -- either keep the soil slightly moist or allow the top inch or two to dry out before watering again.
- Fertilize lightly on a consistent basis, depending upon the plant’s growth. Quick-growing plants and those that flower or develop fruit will need more frequent fertilizing than slow-growing plants.
- Purchase plants that are certified disease- or pathogen-free.
- Look for disease-resistant cultivars.
- Isolate plants showing disease symptoms to prevent the spread to neighboring plants.
- Practice good plant hygiene by removing any fallen plant material as soon as possible.







- Spray plants with Pyrethrin, which is an organic pesticide derived from marigolds (follow label instructions) or Permethrin, the synthetic version of Pyrethrin.
- Introduce beneficial insects to the garden that eat thrips, such as minute pirate bugs and green lacewings.
- Remove heavily infested plants from the area and discard.
- Address viral diseases that may have been transmitted by the pests.
- For less serious cases -use a hose to spray the thrips off of the plants.

- Avoid buying and transplanting infected plants. Check for signs of thrip damage before buying.
- Regularly prune off dead branches and leaves.
- Keep the garden weeded and remove debris such as dead branches and leaves.
- Avoid unnecessary use of insecticides as they can kill predatory insects that keep thrips in check.
- Plant a diverse variety of plants in the garden to provide habitat for predatory insects.







- Physically remove mites from plants
- Rinse the leaves of houseplants - spray with a hose or wipe with a moist, soapy cloth
- Apply neem oil or horticultural oil spray - both of these are easy to use and work quickly on mites indoors and in the garden
- Use a miticide - a broad spray of miticide can eliminate large populations of leaf mites in the garden (however, this risks also risk killing beneficial mites that eat harmful pests)
- Use natural enemies like lady beetles and predatory mites to control populations
- Long-lasting pesticides like permethrin and bifenthrin work, but can deter beneficial insects from visiting

- Inspect plants regularly for leaf mites - do this every three days when conditions are hot and dry
- Dust or rinse the leaves of houseplants on a regular basis
- Provide at least one inch of water per week to plants
- Avoid fertilizing during a drought
- Select plants that are able to handle drought conditions with ease
- Clean garden or growing area after every single crop cycle
- Remove all weeds, as they may be host plants for leaf mites.

1. Choose the right type of artificial light: LED lights are a popular choice for indoor plant lighting because they can be customized to provide the specific wavelengths of light that your plants need.
Full sun plants need 30-50W/sq ft of artificial light, partial sun plants need 20-30W/sq ft, and full shade plants need 10-20W/sq ft.
2. Determine the appropriate distance: Place the light source 12-36 inches above the plant to mimic natural sunlight.
3. Determine the duration: Mimic the length of natural daylight hours for your plant species. most plants need 8-12 hours of light per day.
