Yes! Take action. I recently had an occurrence on two plants. quarantine immediately, if badly infested cut off the leaves otherwise, if able to shower them off and then neem oil or other insecticidal remedy to the rescue. Stay on top of it they can be dangerous to your entire collection. Good luck and treat weekly and check daily. I am bummed out I never had these before and it’s worrisome because I have over 200 Plants.
