Actually looks like whiteflies?? Not quite sure but doesn’t look like the normal aphids

Yeah never seen them before ! Haven’t really had any pest problems besides the snails or slugs eating my bell pepper plant 😅😭

Haha yeah, ooo aphids got my bell peppers, I tried every day to get rid of them and they just kept coming back 😭had to wind up throwing the two plants away with a measly yield of one tiny pepper. Yeah looking more at it I’d say whiteflies, definitely hose them all off and then either use a food grade pesticide or an alcohol/water/dish soap spray

Oh nooo 😭 seems like the bell peppers are getting attacked left and right then ! I wasn’t sure if mine were going to survive 🤣 but I noticed them getting taller and not all the leaves were eaten so I planted ! Gotta hand it to that one tiny pepper lol 💪🏻 sounds good I’ll be doing that later today ! Its scorching hot out now 😅

Right? It’s like they have a sign that says get juicy peppers here before they even produce one lol 😂 oh good! I’m glad they’re looking like they are going to make it lol! True haha, against all odds 🙌🏼alrighty, ugh tell me about it, it’s so hot and sticky here even at sunset

Lolll I guess your peppers had to pay the price for the rest of ours to thrive so thank you peppers 🤣 ahh just a dry heat on my end 😆
