Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services - Division of Plant Industry

The Division of Plant Industry is the regulatory agency of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services that works to detect, intercept and control plant and honey bee pests that threaten Florida’s native and commercially grown plants and agricultural resources.

DPI partners on a regular basis with UF/IFAS to develop effective programs that assist homeowners and commercial industries in the production of healthy, pest-free plants, crops and managed honey bee colonies.

Pest Alerts are a useful tool for alerting professionals and homeowners about pests that have either arrived in Florida or may arrive soon.

DPI whitefly website offers the latest information and pest alerts from the state regarding whitefly issues in Florida.
