    I don't know what this is, but we have lost a 30-year-old cycad to these little buggers.
    Also a 17 x 3 m bank of vygies.
    One has to be very careful today and keep checks on everything.

    My wife buys herbs and spices in large quantities and we have noticed a mite type of vermin which is very hard to kill.
    We have sprayed poison, fumigated, and tried everything, but they keep coming back.
    So no more bulk buying. We now only buy from reputable merchants in certified containers if we can't grow it ourselves.
    Excellence is not a skill; its an attitude...
