How to treat leaf miner on plants?

Remove badly mined leaves. Spray neem oil (5 ml/litre) or spinosad (0.5 ml/litre) — it enters leaf tissue and kills larvae. Yellow sticky traps catch adult leaf miners. Avoid broad-spectrum insecticides that kill natural parasitoid wasps, which are the most effective natural control.
