Whitefly

A tiny, snow-white insect pest that  resembles a moth. Both adult and nymph stages feed by sucking plant juices. Whiteflies are not effectively dislodged from the vegetable’s surface by water; only a soapy solution together with a strong stream of water effectively dislodges whiteflies from the surface of the produce.

» They can be found typically in: basil, Green kale, mint, rosemary and thyme. Although there are other types of insects, we will discuss only those listed above.
Please note that the color of these particular insects may vary from produce item to produce item.
