Good evening everyone. Okay, in this post I will share some pictures of a unique insect or more commonly called a whitefly, from a distance I thought this was bird droppings stuck to a tree branch, but when I got closer I realized that this was an insect, the uniqueness of this insect is seen in terms of its pure white color and looks like a fungus that is stuck to a tree branch, this is a pest and often damages plants, the way this insect damages plants is by sucking the plant's juices so that the plant becomes less fertile. Okay everyone, now I will share some pictures of this whitefly here
