Allowing this pest to proliferate has significant consequences:
– Crop damage: Vines, apple trees, and maple trees are among the most affected. Sap extraction weakens plants, reducing their productivity and making them more susceptible to disease.
– Environmental impact: By targeting native trees, it directly jeopardizes local ecosystems. The disappearance of certain plant species disrupts the balance of the food chain.
– Domestic nuisances: Its feeding leads to the secretion of sticky honeydew, which promotes the formation of black mold and attracts pests such as wasps. This residue makes gardens and terraces unwelcoming.
