I found these little white speckled things on my SOP. I’m really worried about these little creatures (I’ve seen them moving about) and I’m not sure what to do. I’ve mixed rosemary, lavender, and cloves together and have been spraying down my pearls often and I’m freaking out bc she was thriving. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions to getting rid of these bugs? And I also don’t know what these bugs are called so if you know please tell me.
I think they’re aphids. I haven’t dealt with those before. I looked it up and it said to keep plant quarantine until you can get rid of the insects, spray them off, and maybe even put them outside where their natural predators like ladybugs can take care of them. Someone else might have better advice.

hey there! if you take a vinegar/water/dish soap solution to the pearls with a qtip, it will get rid of the aphids and prevent them from coming back! you can also look into “mosquito bits” :) hope this helps!
