Whiteflies: Identify, Prevent and Treat to Save Your Plants
What are whiteflies and how to identify them?
Whiteflies, also known as whiteflies, are tiny flying insects that feed on the sap of houseplants. These insects are most visible when you shake a leaf: a small cloud of whiteflies flies out. By sucking the sap, whiteflies weaken plants, causing yellowing of leaves and stunted growth. If you spot these signs, it's time to take action to prevent an infestation.
Preventing Whitefly Infestations on Your Houseplants
Prevention is key to limiting whitefly infestations. Avoid excess humidity, space plants for better ventilation, and regularly inspect new plants before adding them to your space. In case of light infestation, using sticky traps can capture a few whiteflies. For enhanced preventative protection, Vitalis Care Plant helps you prevent the spread by creating an effective and durable protective barrier.
