Hurt Plant

When groundselbush beetle attacks Baccharis, it chews through the leaf tissues, causing physical harm. This feeding action results in holes or notches on the leaves, which disrupts photosynthesis, diminishes the plant's vigor, and can lead to a ragged appearance. Severely affected plants may experience reduced growth or even death if the defoliation is extensive.
