Insects often appear on the garden plot. Some of them pose a threat.
Different cultures can be subject to their attacks.
Radish is also at risk. Who is the most dangerous for it?
Cruciferous flea beetle
Its larvae and imago are dangerous. The cruciferous flea beetle eats through the leaves of radishes, which leads to a lack of harvest.
It is not so difficult to recognize it - it looks like a small black beetle.
Cabbage moth
The pest likes to feast on cabbage, as is clear from the name. But it also does not refuse a treat of radish.
The caterpillars are inside the leaf and feed there. The adults are on the surface of the leaf and drink all its juice.
Cabbage moth
If the radish grows in a lowland, then the probability of attack by such a pest becomes high. The moth loves moisture, so it appears in areas where there is moisture.
Initially, it eats the leaves, and only then begins to destroy the root crop. This leads to its rotting.
Cabbage white butterfly
This butterfly is only seemingly harmless. The white butterfly attacks the green part of the radish and feeds on it.
She also lays eggs, which are later found inside the root crop.
