Mining insects feed between the upper and lower surfaces of leaves, creating serpentine trails, blotches, and winding tunnels. Their internal feeding disrupts photosynthesis, weakens plant vigor, and can lead to defoliation and die-back during severe infestations.
These pests are commonly the larvae of moths, flies, or beetles. Early detection is key, as the damage often appears as pale, winding mines or blotches before the insects emerge.
