Important Pests and Control Methods
- Powdery Mildew: This frequently occurs in dry environments and crowded areas. It is important to remove infected parts, ventilate the surroundings, and water appropriately. For chemical control, use an appropriate fungicide.
- Aphids: They mainly appear on the undersides of leaves and suck the plant's sap. You can control them by washing them off with water or using soapy water.
- Spider mites: These occur in dry environments and cause the leaves to turn yellow. Maintain humidity by watering regularly or using appropriate insecticides.
