PACHYSANDRA INSECT PROBLEMS



Scale infests the stems and leaves and heavy infestations
cause plants to yellow and die. Scale crawlers can be
controlled with applications of properly labeled
insecticides.

Mites cause the leaves to fade from green to yellow.
Heavy infestations form fine webbing on the leaves.

Pachysandra leaf tier chews the leaves and ties them
together.
