What is distorting the shoot tips on my Fuchsia plants?

💡 Our Advice

This is Fuchsia gall mite, which can ruin your plants if not dealt with. Prune the plant hard and spray the new growth as it emerges with Provanto Ultimate Bug Killer (aerosol) from Bayer or SB Plant Invigourator (several applications may be needed).
