The gall wasp is one of the most annoying pests of citrus trees. This insect will attack all varieties of citrus trees, and heavily infested trees will have severely reduced fruit and leaf production, and suffer from dieback.
This gall is known to cause economic damage and, in some cases, if left unchecked will cause death of the tree. Pruning the galls off the tree in May, when the wasps are inside, is the only known effective control.
