Fuchsia Gall Mite - treatment ?

Can you list which ones you have found resistant ?

Expect these are all Hybrids, but Lady Boothby and Garden News are the only ones unaffected, though Genii has just a little.

 

Think what make things worse is that they go inside the plant so topical treatments do not affect them, though we did try in July using some typical systemic bug killers but no obvious effect as the infections carried on.

Wonder if @gks at his garden center has had to treat any of their stock ?

 

If you cut your fuchsia back to sticks , there's nothing for the fuchsia gall mite to live on. It has worked for me for a few years without pesticides or flamethrowers
