Tea thrips vs. bees.

Tea thrips and bees play significant roles in agriculture, aiding in the reproduction of plants. However, while facilitating this process, some pests are also spread alongside bees, much like the concept of the Catbus from “My Neighbor Totoro.” For instance, thrips can attach themselves to bees and thus be transported to other tea gardens. This mode of transport allows thrips to spread more efficiently across different areas, potentially impacting the health and yield of tea plants in other gardens.
