Pests, Diseases & DisordersCan one mango fruit have both insect damage and a disease?
Yes. Feeding wounds can be followed by decay, and a visibly rotting fruit may still contain evidence of the earlier injury. Examine the edge of the affected area, the skin, flesh, and seed before discarding it. Record the likely initial injury separately from organisms found later. This helps avoid choosing a disease treatment when preventing the original pest damage is also necessary to reduce the recurring loss.
