Default fuchsia gall mite

Anyone know anything informative about this pest? I know it's been in
the gardening magazines and papers but apart from no known
antidote/control, the fact that in future people might have to steer
clear of fuchsias like they do begonias now and the fact that the mites
are so small you will miss them there hasn't been a photo of the damaged
plants or how to recognise it on your plants etc..
Many people who grow fuchsias seem to grow HUGE quantities of them and
hang them from every bit of their land and/or house. They'll be
devastated.
Does anyone know if hardy fuchsias will also be hit as much?
