Whiteflies or Thrips?
In recent years I've developed a problem with what I think is whiteflies. It seems like the incidence of disease also increased greatly about the same time. I've read that thrips often convey disease, but I've never seen reference to whiteflies doing so. That got me wondering if what I have is really thrips. How can you tell the difference? Do whiteflies convey disease too?
What I have are tiny white bugs that scatter at the least provocation. Whatever they are, it seems almost impossible to get rid of them.
