Pogust Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 For several years there has been something on mango trees killing some of the new soft shoots. This year it's been on almost all trees, continuing for every new flush. There are small holes around the shoot evenly spaced. And a few other holes further out. It's not stem borers when I never find any larvae inside. I have stem borers too but they only make one hole. There could be a sap sucking insect walking around the shoot making them? Must be during night when I never seen any bugs in daytime. They do much harm as the trees struggle to grow and get cut back all the time. Haven't done any spraying of wood vinegar and soap this year when most trees are doing OK without it. Anyone got a suggestion what it could be? Might have to spend some nights with a headlamp among the trees... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
