Two-Spotted Spider Mite (Tetranychus urticae)

Spider mites thrive in the warm, dry conditions often experienced by Oriental Lilies. They pierce the cell walls of the leaves to suck out nutrients, leaving behind fine silken webs as they migrate across the foliage.

Very Common

Broad Mite (Polyphagotarsonemus latus)

While broad mites are too small to see easily, their feeding causes leaf distortion and can lead to secondary silk production by other organisms. They specifically target the tender new growth of lilies, causing stunting.

Common

How to confirm: Inspect the very tips of new lily buds for puckered, bronze-colored, or distorted foliage.

3 Monitor the plant closely using a magnifying glass to check for secondary pests that may be contributing to the webbing.
warning

Southern Yellow-striped Armyworm (Spodoptera eridania)

In some climates, certain larvae can create silken retreats or webbing while feeding on the soft tissue of Lily leaves. This is often accompanied by visible holes in the leaf blades.

Common
