Hey y’all!! replanting my monstera and noticed these clusters of tiny brown spots that are creating yellow spots on my plant. Looks like it could be some sort of pest egg but I don’t see any bugs! Can someone help tell me what these are??(they easily come off the plant too)

looks like fungal rust. it’s difficult to treat unfortunately, i just cut off the infected parts of the leaf since rubbing alcohol didn’t kill it. i think monstera must be prone to it, i’ve seen it on them a few times

Agree with this. You can also try treating with copper fungicide after you remove damaged leaves, but if it’s rust it probably won’t work well.
