There are over 6000 thrips species sucking the plant life all over the world. Thrips are small insects, only about 1/20″, but they can cause a lot of damage. At maturity, they are yellowish or blackish with fringed wings. Nymphs have a similar shape but lack wings. They are usually yellowish to white. Thrips are poor flyers. As a result, damage often occurs in one part of the plant then slowly spreads throughout it. Thrips cannot fly properly as they are poor in that but can readily spread long distances by floating with the wind or being transported on infested plants. The large thrips feed in large groups and if they are disturbed they leap or fly away. Thrips are barely visible to the untrained eye.
Thrips cause major economic losses in many agricultural systems every year and can have generations around 12 to 15 per year, their life cycle is faster in warmer months.
Thrips are particularly attracted to flowers that are bright in color, where they cause damage such as streaking and scarring of petals, damaging of flowers and flower buds, and incomplete petal expansion. The flowers that produce double layers with many petals and more prone to thrips
Roses are roses and for the longest time they have been honored as the most popular flowers in the world, but if that rose is riddled by thrips then it may lose its traditional charm. They can be tough to get rid of once they have invaded roses.
Western flower thrips are primarily pests of herbaceous plants, but high populations occasionally damage continuously- or late-blossoming flowers on woody plants such as roses. Some plant-feeding thrips are also predaceous on other pests, such as spider mites. In young cotton seedlings in California, western flower thrips is considered beneficial because it feeds on spider mites.
Symptoms in ornamental crops:
- ring spots and line patterns on leaves
- black streaking on veins and stems
- stunting
- death of a growing plant
