Good morning beautiful people
I am seeking information about Redlegged Earth Mite (Halotydeus destructor) . Specifically information in relation to the effect it may have or has had on bushland revegetation projects:
Did it have an effect on seedlings?
Was there certain native flora that it effected more than others?
Control methods?
Did the mite effect remnant bushland areas that are surrounded by pasture agricultural areas?
Basically any information anyone may have. I have sourced info from the following links so far:
