Thrips


Hi everyone,
I was hoping someone could give me some general information about 
thrips- like what they are, how much damage they do, how likely they 
are to effect SI or JI, and whether or not taking measures against 
them is necessary if you've never had them before.  I've had some 
unknown siberians for 10+ years and only within the last couple of 
years added both SI & JI to the garden.  While my old unknowns seem 
nearly indestructable (doubling in size every year, surviving me 
jumping up and down on a spade trying to split the rhizomes, choking 
out daylilies, thriving in a foot of standing water...)I'm a little 
concerned that the newer additions are more susceptible to pests and 
diseases.  Should I take proactive steps, or should I wait until I 
have a problem?

Thanks for any info!
