leaf-curling moth

Posted 83 days ago

I have 6 tomato plants, and one has some curled leaves. I had a look and there are tiny white moths on the underneath. about 2mm long.
Will these damage the fruit? or is it OK to leave them there?
The tomato plants are all seperated and only one is affected, will they start to spread?
Thank you for any help.
Trish

Hi misstrish. They are white flies and a problem if not controlled.Confidor or similar products will sort them out and try to keep the bushes so they have good air circulation.

Regards John.
