Protect your plants, crops, and green spaces from the silent destroyers: whiteflies. Whiteflies may be tiny, but their impact is massive. These sap-sucking pests often invade farms, gardens, greenhouses, and even decorative plants around homes. They not only weaken plants but also spread viruses and cause costly crop losses.
At Rafiki Pest Control, we offer specialized whitefly control services to help you protect your investment whether it’s a backyard garden or a large-scale farm.
What Are Whiteflies and Why They’re a Problem
Whiteflies are small, winged insects that look like white moths or powdery dots clinging to leaves. Though they’re not true flies, their behavior is similar to aphids they feed on plant sap and leave behind sticky residue (honeydew) that attracts mold and other pests.
They reproduce rapidly, especially in warm climates, and can quickly form colonies that devastate entire crops or ornamental plants.
Signs of Whitefly Infestation
You may be dealing with whiteflies if you notice:
- Tiny white insects flying up when a plant is disturbed
- Yellowing, curling, or wilting leaves
- Sticky substance on leaves and nearby surfaces
- Presence of black sooty mold
- Reduced plant growth or premature leaf drop
If left untreated, whiteflies can cause extensive plant damage and affect yields, especially in vegetables, fruits, flowers, and greenhouse crops.
Our Whitefly Control Process
We offer a comprehensive, eco-conscious approach to whitefly elimination:
- Site inspection
- We assess the level of infestation, type of plants affected, and the surrounding environment to identify the right treatment plan.
- Targeted treatment
- Depending on your situation, we use a combination of:
- Insecticidal sprays approved for plant use
- Systemic pesticides absorbed by the plant to kill feeding whiteflies
- Natural oils and soaps that suffocate insects on contact
- Sticky traps for monitoring and reducing adult populations
- Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
- We focus on long-term prevention using natural enemies, crop rotation, environmental adjustments, and responsible chemical use.
- Ongoing monitoring
- We provide follow-up inspections and offer maintenance options, especially for greenhouses and commercial farms.
