Pests on mango palmer


Did you think that the mango would escape from different types of pests ? Unfortunately not! Check now which are the parasites that attack the mango palmer in how to get rid of the pests :
powdery mildew


Powdery mildew is a fungus that primarily attacks the lower part of the leaves, presenting a white and grayish structure with a purulent appearance. As the days go by, this leaf becomes necrotic and has a dark color. At the top, the color turns reddish brown.

In order to control and subsequently eliminate the pest, it is necessary to spray insecticide, especially during the hottest hours of the day.
anthracnose


This pest is an infection caused by a fungus that takes advantage of hot and rainy summers for its infestation. It causes damage to the fruits, mainly, soon after the harvest. First, spots appear in the reddish brown color that ends up extending later to the fruit.

In many cases, anthracnose is confused with the disease called bitter rot. In high humidity, the plant's conidia consequently become exposed and enveloped in a mucilaginous pink mass and the fruits become shriveled and eventually fall off.

To eliminate this pest, it is necessary to remove and subsequently burn the infected fruits. In addition, the application of an appropriate fungicide will be necessary.

fruit fly
This is the queen of the mango pest infestation. Adult flies make halos on the fruits, approximately 2 cm in diameter with dark coloration. When the larvae hatch the halo turns brown in color due to the rotting of the mango palmer skin.

It is in this rotting tissue that fungi thrive. The pest prefers to attack fruits that are exposed to the sun. Consequently, because it is a shorter egg-laying insect, the species only attacks fruits at a very advanced stage of maturation. This ends up causing loss of fruit quality. Check out the procedures to eradicate the pest:
First, monitor using traps such as McPhail-type traps or traps made in plastic packaging with food attractants for flies. 5% hydrolyzed protein and 10% fruit juice, torula brown sugar as well as wine vinegar can be used. It is also possible to add 2.5% to 5% of molasses by changing the attractants every 15 days.
It is also possible to make toxic baits soaked with molasses and spray products.
Ants


This insect attacks mango trees when the mango tree is developing. It does this mainly at night, causing defoliation of the plant and in severe infestations, it can cause death of the mango palm.

It is possible to protect mango palmer seedlings by placing plastic umbrellas or even aluminum foil. To eliminate the pest, baits or powdered chemicals are used, as well as liquid insecticides applied via nebulization.
white cochineal


The white cochineal feeds on the fruits and also on the leaves of the mango palmer. To put an end to this pest, it is necessary to spray and lime sulphur, as well as mineral and vegetable oils.
thrips


Thrips is an insect that bites the underside of leaves, consequently causing the appearance of yellow and chlorotic spots that later turn brown.

In severe infestations, defoliation takes place. This attack can happen mainly at the beginning of the development of the plant, which later have withered, reduced or dry fruits. Control can only happen with specific insecticide spraying.
aphids


This tireless insect always attacks the mango trees, but mainly in the driest period. In more severe infestations, the leaves become shriveled due to the suction on the leaves caused by the pests.

Consequently, the leaves turn black, making the plant's photosynthesis process difficult. The elimination of this pest is done only by spraying a specific insecticide.
