Thrips are minute, slender-bodied insects less than 1/16 inch to about 3/16 inch in length.
With magnification, you can identify the adults that range in color from yellow to black and have four long, narrow, fringed wings.
The young nymphs are smaller, wingless, and range in color from yellow to white.
Many thrips are plant feeders attacking flowers, leaves, fruit, twigs, or buds.
