The manner in which thrips attack trees is, generally speaking, much the same. They arrive just before or while the buds are opening, and enter the bud, if possible, otherwise they begin to feed on the tip and eventually work their way in. When once inside they attack the tenderest of the flower parts and in many cases reveal a rather fastidious taste, preferring some particular part, such as the stamen, petal, or pistil.

The mouth opening, the rim of which is strongly chitinized and rough- ened, rasp-like, is in the smaller distal end of the cone, and through it project two stylets or needles. The insect, when feeding, first pierces the plant tissue with the stylets, thus making an opening; then moving the mouth-cone back and forth it rasps and tears the opening larger, and, pushing the tip of the mouth-cone down into this puncture, sucks in the juices of the plant.
