Lavandula

Does anyone know how to get rid of the #spittlebug? They’ve taken a liking to our lavender plant. If I wash them off, they’re back the very next day! Second question - do they need to be removed? #advice #pestcontrol

@teamgardentags is there anyone you can tag that could help with this?

Perhaps @mrsflowerpot @ianshaw @mikethegardener @moore.794 could help you Marc 👍🏻🙂

Hi Marc Spittle bugs are not that harmful to plants they do very little damage unless they are in large numbers. I would advise to just keep washing them off. They look a bit unsightly but they are not a major garden pest. 💚

Neem oil & insecticidal soap will help control. Usually not problem unless there are many. You seem to have many
