How can you fight Tomato spotted wild virus (TSWV)?
The Tomato spotted wild virus (TSWV) is a plant disease that affects plants such as tomatoes, eggplant, lettuce and various ornamentals. The virus is spread in different ways. The major transmitter is thrips. These bugs absorb the virus during their first larval stage and can then spread it for the rest of their lifespan. Apart from being spread by thrips, the Tomato spotted wild virus can also be spread via plant material and weeds.
Tomato spotted wild virus identification
The Tomato spotted wild virus can be recognized by (chlorotic and necrotic) patches and circles on leaves. Brown lines sometimes develop on the leaves. The Tomato spotted wild virus also causes poor fruit that stays light in color and sometimes develops brown circles or patches, lumps and/or varied discolorations.

Prevention
Prevention is better than cure. Therefore, make sure that your new cultivation process after changing your crops starts by thorough cleaning and disinfection. This is how you can kill the virus. To do this, make use of the disinfection protocol for your crop.
Since thrips are the most significant factor in the spread of the Tomato spotted wild virus, it is also very important to prevent thrips from the very beginning of cultivation. Use sticky insect strips to monitor the pest levels and treat the crops if they increase.
