There are different pests that infest and damage strawberry plants, out of which the tarnished plant bugs are the most attracted bugs\u00a0towards strawberries, they are also known as lygus<\/g> bugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strawberries\ncontinuously bloom and produce fruit during the entire season and require more\nattention. Some strawberry growers say that rather than farming, growing\nstrawberries is more like gardening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tarnished\nplant bug infestation produces distorted or cat faced fruit, this damage is\ncaused due to feeding by nymphs as fruit develop. Nymphs puncture individual\nseeds and inject a growing strawberry seed with a toxin since at the point of\ninjection the strawberry will stop developing as this will result in deformed\nstrawberries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deformed\nstrawberries don\u2019t resemble like a normal strawberry they look different and\nthey are also known as button or nubbins berries. Unlike the normal one, the\ndeformed strawberries can contain scars, broken skin, while some are with mold\nor decay or those that are either undeveloped or too ripe. The damaged seeds\nare brown on the outer side and hollow on the inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us have a look at evidence,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Different crops can be attacked by different pests, but the\nquarter-inch-long critter known as the lygus bug has a broad appetite. More\nthan 200 plants may be hosts for lygus, causing damage to many California\ncrops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lygus bugs, also known as western tarnish bugs, damage strawberry\nfruit by puncturing individual seeds; in turn, this stops development of the\nberry in the area surrounding the feeding site. The result is an irregularly\nshaped berry, also known as \u201ccat-faced,\u201d for the resulting damage can look like\na feline face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pesticides have detrimental effects on human health; with young\nchildren among the particularly vulnerable, low levels of pesticide exposure\ncan affect young children\u2019s neurological and behavioral development. Pesticides\ncan cause deadly diseases like asthma, autism and learning disabilities, birth defects and reproductive\ndysfunction, diabetes, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, and several types of cancer.
