| | Mites both carry and cause diseases and can trigger allergies (house dust mite). They can also cause damage where food is stored (Acarus siro). Some types of mites, however, are useful. Gamasid mites exterminate plant pests and some species are put to good use in the production of certain cheeses. | | |

Parasitoid mites like Bonomoia sphaerocerae and Macrocheles insignitus are the natural enemies of Sepsis Fulgens. These mites also use the flies as a means of transport. Sepsis fulgens can also can be infested by the nematode Diplogaster coprophila.

After a while the leaves of infected plants are densely dotted with numerous pale stains and they then wither and fall off. Similar damage is caused by spider mites. For spider mite infestation, the evidence is the lack of Rose leafhopper and their missing larvae on the leaves’ undersides. | | |
