Lindalana I have the same bug issue. I looked it up last year but now I can't find it nor can I remember its name. It is a true bug.

Last year I had a few plants with these bugs on them and I just squished the bugs when I found them. This year they are all over the place and ruining the foliage on many of my plants. Earlier this week I made the decision to spray them with soap spray. It seems to have been very effective. I have only found 2 since spraying on Monday and those were on plants that I could not reach very well to spray.

I am watching very closely to see if I need to spray them again. I do not like to spray plants either but this was a severe infestation that was turning the tops of my plants to a brown crisp.

Hopefully this one spraying will help to keep them in check.
