<font style=”vertical-align: inherit;”><font style=”vertical-align: inherit;”><font style=”vertical-align: inherit;”><font style=”vertical-align: inherit;”>These mites hide during winter in the old wood and in the spring, they come out and start to lay egs in the young leaves. There is a very simple and efficient way to control these mites. As soon as you see the symptomes, these small bumbs, pick off the leaves at a size of a 50 eurocent coin, that is in april, very early is important. By doing this, you remove the first eggs and there wille be no second generation. They can make up to 7 generations each year. The plant will react by making new leaves so there won’t be any problem. Normally, you see the mites very locally, a few plants in a row. You can check for symptomes a few weeks later and remove some leaves if nescessary.</font></font></font></font>
