Thrips Control: How to Get Rid of Thrips Effectively. Thrip management is a matter of garden maintenance — reducing the places where thrips may breed — and requires removing plant debris while it’s still on the ground and green. Thrips lay their eggs in slits they cut in live plant stems.
2 Αυγ 2024 · Learn how to identify thrips and many methods to control and eradicate the common indoor and outdoor plant pests.
Thrips are common greenhouse pests damaging to food and flower crops. Control them with thrips predators, biological controls, insecticides and other organic methods.
The most effective way to eliminate thrips are physical removal, hosing, predatory insects, and the application of organic insecticides like neem oil, castile soap, and alcohol. Chemical pesticides can be used but are not recommended, especially for flowering plants or edible crops.
Be sure to properly identify your pests as thrips before embarking on a mission of thrip control. We highly recommend aiming to control your thrip population, as opposed to total eradication, as a moderate number of thrips can actually have a positive effect on your garden.
Implementing natural methods such as attracting beneficial insects, applying botanical insecticides, and using creative cultural controls can help reduce thrip populations without the need for harsh chemicals.
