I dont agree with Rapa caps answer. I wont spray any chemicals onto my Weed . Its an outdoor. and this bugs are everywhere, in my Garden too. I Ignore them- They are biting into the leaves. my Plants dont care. The other thing is, sparayin outdoors anything you kill all the insects,,, even the good ones like bees. I normally go with Neemoilsolution. That is so stinky the insects avoid the Plants... in vegetation i spary it onto the whole Plants, but in flower i dont i just spray the surface of the soil with it. I plant mint, marigold and lavender around my Plants. or basisö . that helps too I would stay cool. Iam sure your Plant has no big problems with those lil suckers

I don't use posionus chemicals on my weed. Some natural insect repellent s are cyan pepper or cinnamon. Try sprinkling it around the plants.

@Mrs_Larimar, the damages to the leaves is not so worrying but the laying of the eggs in the stems by puncture. Metcalpha can seriously damage. In addition, the insect has a waxy substance that makes it impermeable to almost all products. Manual removal is almost impossible. This is the way things are, the grower has the choice. Cheers

It's metcalfa pruinosa. Very dangerous and very hard to fight. Organic treatments unuseful. Try imidacloprid. Cheers
