Very small spiders, these herbivorous arachnids multiply rapidly and can destroy greenhouse crops quickly if not put into balance.
Here is a family with the adult juvenile and egg stages present @ high magnification (350-500X)
Notice the dark eggs which I assume are more mature vs the lighter ones. I would love to spend a month or two studying the behaviour of these creatures in the future because they really do need to be studied more intensively in order to be controlled without pesticides.
Here you can see the insect busy in it's destructive pathology
I am not a fan of this insect but it has a rather large role in the economy at the moment.
You might be shocked to learn that farmers spend millions each year to control these pests from destroying their livelihoods.
