WHO CAUSES IT?
Panonychus citri, known as the citrus red mite, is an arachnid insect that affects citrus trees and can cause significant damage to crops. These mites feed on leaf sap, which weakens the plant and can reduce fruit production. Additionally, the presence of red mites can cause defoliation of trees and negatively affect their overall health.
