Ugh. Some of my peppers have this problem too. I thought it be something they might outgrow, but I see now that's not going to happen. Should I quarantine them or pull them? I don't want to spread TSWV to anything.

I've sprayed twice with bifenthrin and most seem to be growing out of it. There is a 7 day waiting period to harvest on peppers--only one day on tomatoes.

This is the same pepper plant after spraying. It's looking better and the other peppers look better yet. Maybe I dodged the TSWV on some of them anyway.

Thrips invade me every year for the past 3 years. I dont know how to get rid of them but I control them with green lacewings. I also grow TSWV resistant tomatos. Thrips are pure evil.
