Well I?m here again,

I?ve just discovered a problem with one of my plants. I found that some kind of infestation is affecting it, but I don?t know what it is :sick: . I?m posting some photos so you can help me.

I immediately separated this plant from the rest of my trees but now I?m concerned since I don?t know if it has spread already, at first glance it hasn?t but I?m not 100% sure. Also, I?d like you to recommend me what can I use to remove this infestation that it seems bug related. Oh, one more thing when I removed one of the cocoons a thin reddish powder emerged I think I saw a larvae lurking around.

Thanks in advance

hello, they are definitely scale insects as Geoff said, but before you try using an insecticide, try picking them off by hand as the tree can suffer if you give it an insecticide.

Hi Geoff,

Ok, duly noted. One question though... How would you apply the insecticide?

Use a sprayer, If you used Provado you could water it in as it is systemic.
