Anybody knows what kind of bug this is? My Plumeria has been struggling with it for the last few months. I sprayed it twice with pyrethrin but I does not seem to stop it. Any advice would be welcomed.

Do it for about two months. Don’t stop spraying just because you don’t see any. Or Neem oil, whichever is your preference. I seem to have less plant damage with insecticidal soap. But even that has caused some damage on a couple succulents.

좋아요 1개Thank you all. I will follow your advice and keep at it regularly.
