ABOUT THIS VIDEO: GET RID OF THRIPS (and make sure they never come back)
This is an updated video on my experience with thrips on houseplants (in my case, thrips on monstera) and what I have done to really get rid of thrips. We first go over the question of how to identify thrips on plants and specifically how to identify thrips on houseplants. When identifying thrips the first thing I would recommend is to identify thrips damage on houseplants (I go over the most common examples in the video), after we have identified thrips damage on plants, we can move foward to looking for thrips themselves on the plant. To get rid of thrips I also argue that it is very important to understand the thrips life cycle, thrips life cycle stages and thrips life cycle days. Understanding the thrips life cycle will help us when getting rid of thrips and to know exactly where to focus our efforts against them and for thrips control after :-). This video is perfect to get rid of thrips on monstera but of course these methods will also be great on other plants. So if you are looking for videos answering the question how to get rid of thrips on plants, this video is especially made for you. If you are looking for thrips control organic, I would recommend that you look into nematodes against thrips (and do let me know how that experience goes for you).
