Garden Insect Pests

Aphids (greenfly) on roseInsect pests cause damage to many plants in the garden and others pester us while we are trying to enjoy the outdoor experience.

Sap sucking insects - Aphids (greenfly), whitefly, psyllids, mealy bugs, plant hoppers and scale insects suck the sap of roses and other plants. Ants can be included here because many species 'farm' aphids, encouraging the damage done to our plants and protecting the aphids from their natural predators.

Sap sucking insects are transmitters of plant fungal infections, viral and bacterial infections such as Psyllid Yellows (Zebra Chip) to tomatoes, potatoes and capsicums.

Plant eaters - Caterpillars and other insect larvae such as cutworms, leafrollers, fruit worm and loopers eat our fruit, vegetables and the leaves and roots of all sorts of plants.

Nuisance insects - Wasps buzz the barbecue and may even attack us with their stings, flies pester us when sun bathing, cluster fly larvae attack beneficial earth worms and then the adult flies invade our homes, spiders produce webbing that in unsightly. Slaters, earwigs and grubs get in our vegetable patch, eat the vegetables.

Lawn and pasture damaging insects - Grass grub, black field crickets eat grass roots and often cause browning off of grassed areas.

Kiwicare to the rescue; we produce a comprehensive range of insecticides and organic insect control products to protect you and your plants so that you can enjoy your beautiful garden.
