FAQ About Indoor Plant Stress Phenomena

How can pests contribute to stress in indoor plants?

Pests such as aphids, spider mites, and mealybugs can cause significant stress in indoor plants. These insects feed on plant sap, leading to weakened plants, distorted growth, and reduced vigor. Pests can also transmit diseases, further stressing the plant. Regular inspection and preventive measures, such as using neem oil or insecticidal soap, are essential to manage pests and minimize stress.
