Diseases
The same goes for disease. Disease refers to bacteria, viruses, fungi and other microbes
that eat plants or animals. They don't have the big antennae that insects have, and to be
honest, I have no idea how they find the plant they're going to eat. But like insects, each
microbe generally has only a few species of plants it eats, and they eat sick plants. In fact,
fungal diseases seem to go for plant tissue that is already dying.
