Field Notes
What Are Leafminers?
Leafminers feed inside leaves, leaving tunnels or blotches behind. Learn which insects do it, how their lives unfold, and where Diglyphus fits.
Leafminers Travel Light
A clean-looking plant can carry a hidden passenger. Follow the leafminer through the leaf, the potting mix, and back into the air.
Is Diglyphus Working?
Follow what changes after release, make sense of new damage, and understand what happens to the wasps when suitable hosts disappear.
Put Diglyphus on the Right Leaf
Prepare the plants, check recent treatments, and release adult wasps close to the leafminers they need to find.
Leafminers Leave Receipts
Read the tunnel, find its occupant, and decide how much the damage matters to the plant.
Diglyphus Finds the Tenant
A tiny wasp can reach a leafminer hiding inside a leaf. Follow how it finds the pest, attacks it, and raises its young beside their food.
