I’m not 100% sure but it looks like thirps, just wipe the leaves or spray it down in the shower and overtime it’ll get rid of them, sometimes we have to learn to live with pests as they’ll come back whenever they want :)

You never want any bug on your leaves. I just go to my big box hardware store of my choice and get an insect spray that’s for ornamentals. If left alone they’ll just multiply till you end up throwing it away

and be sure to isolate this plant from any others as it’ll spread and you’ll have a lot of dead plants. be sure to treat all plants that were near it.

It kinda looks like thrips to me. You can wipe them off the leaf and make sure you separate the plant from others so they don’t spread, just in case! 💜
