My peperomia has been dropping leaves and I noticed a lot of the leaves have these small larvae on them. Most are still, but some are crawling. Unsure if whitefly larvae or some other type of pest? Thoughts?

If you have Amazon, purchase neem oil. You’ll want to follow the instructions on the bottle and spray the plant with it. Also isolate this plant if you have others surrounding it.
