Spider Mites on Foxglove, Hollyhock, and Juniper: Detection and Control

"Fried" foxglove leaves, yellow stippling on hollyhock, and bronzed juniper—all point to spider mites, even without visible webbing (webs are rare outdoors). Mites suck chlorophyll from leaf undersides.

Non-Chemical

Blast leaf undersides with strong water spray every 2 days for 2 weeks—mites hate humidity.

Chemical

Hexakis (Ortho Systemic Insect Control) is effective if needed.
