If these are present on my Brugs. should I be able to see them on the underside of the leaves with a
magnifying glass? And what color would the webs be, and do they look just like spider webs? I just want to make sure with a check of all the brugs today.

Patricia, you will be able to see them easily with a magnifying glass. Not as easy without one though. I usually see the webbing more where the leaf attaches to the trunk, but I know they are under the leaves as well. The bottom side of the leaf will also feel sandy if you have a lot of mites. Nasty little critters.
Thanks Brugie, I didn't see anything moving around. But I will take another look now that I know what I am looking for.
