Monitoring for spider mites is the first step in caring Acacia cultriformis. Spider mites are tiny, 8-legged insects that feed on the underside of leaves. They cause yellowing and stippling of leaves, and in heavy infestations, may even kill the plant. The female spider mite can lay as many as 200 eggs in 30 days. Their larvae will live on the plant and lay webs.
