For my orange tree, I’ve noticed the leaves have started to have black spots and it is spreading. Not all of the leaves as shown in pictures. Does anyone know what this is?

Insect damage possibly. turn the leaf over and see if there are any bugs.

I think it actually might be the mist which was a combo of water and peroxide. No insects on it
