Spider mites are plant feeders that, despite their small size, are often conspicuous because they are very numerous, web over leaves with myriads of thin silken threads, and cause leaves to turn yellow by sucking their sap.
Spider mites attack many different kinds of plants, among them greenhouse plants, orchard trees, and field crops.
