Field Notes

Description:

The whiteflies, comprising only the family Aleyrodidae, are small hemipterans. More than 1550 species have been described. Whiteflies typically feed on the underside of plant leaves.

Notes:

I arrived back to an infestation of whitefly. Last year mealy bugs, this year whitefly! Anyone know any good deterrents?
