Common Pests and Diseases
Spider Mite Infestation
Spider mites are tiny pests that thrive in warm, dry conditions. They feed on the sap of asparagus ferns, causing the foliage to become speckled and discolored.
To combat spider mite infestations, increase humidity around your asparagus fern by misting the plant regularly or placing a humidifier nearby. Wash the plant gently with soapy water or use an insecticidal soap to remove and kill the mites. For severe infestations, applying neem oil or a miticide specifically designed for spider mites can be effective. Regularly inspect your plant for signs of mites and isolate infested plants to prevent spread.
