Mango FAQ

1 FAQ

Pests, Diseases & DisordersAre white insect-shaped shells among mango aphids the same as living whiteflies?

Aphids leave pale cast skins as they grow, and these empty shells can accumulate beneath a colony. Examine whether the objects are empty and compare them with moving insects on fresh shoots. Record the living population separately. Treating cast skins as a second pest can lead to an unnecessary response and make the apparent infestation persist after active aphids decline.
