Monitor for pests and disease regularly from "summary" of Tiny World Terrariums by Michelle Inciarrano,Katy Maslow
Keep an eye out for any unwanted visitors in your terrarium - pests and diseases can wreak havoc on your tiny world if left unchecked. Regular monitoring is key to catching any issues early on and taking action before they become a bigger problem. Inspect your terrarium regularly, checking the plants, soil, and overall environment for any signs of trouble. Look for pests such as aphids, mealybugs, or spider mites, as well as any unusual discoloration, wilting, or mold growth. These could be indicators of a pest infestation or disease taking hold. If you do spot any pests or signs of disease, don't panic - there are steps you can take to address the issue. For pests, you may be able to manually remove them or introduce natural predators like ladybugs to help control the population. For diseases, it may be necessary to remove and replace affected plants or treat them with fungicides. Prevention is also key when it comes to pests and diseases in your terrarium. Make sure to keep your terrarium clean and well-maintained, removing any dead plant material or debris that could attract pests. Avoid overwatering, as this can create a humid environment that is ideal for pests and diseases to thrive. By staying vigilant and proactive in monitoring for pests and diseases, you can help keep your tiny world healthy and thriving. Remember, a little bit of prevention and early intervention can go a long way in maintaining the beauty and balance of your terrarium.
