New Pest in Hawaii, please help identify

tardis · Jun 11, 2023

Got new pest in Hawaii. My buddy has it on his plants and doesn't know what it is. Any help identifying it would be greatly appreciated.

They Bore into the stem. Not thrips.

Could be a broad or russet mite. I second the neem treatment. Get on a schedule of treatment for a bit and get through the crop.

It is neither of those things

Are they making holes in the foliage as well?
I’m reading an article and it sounds like flea beetles.

Whatever those bugs are, they didn’t show up overnight, that took some time. Your buddy needs to spend more time in his grow room, working.

Its outdoor
