Ok, found a new critter on one of my plants. It's an odd little thing, that looked like it had a fur belt on. The pics aren't that good (sorry!), as our little camera really has no macro setting, but here were the best I could get of it:

This one is even worse, but it was hard to get it to focus at all on the dern thing...LOL

I only saw two and they were on one plant, but it was starting to ran (again :mad: ) and I didn't get a chance to check the others too in depth. They seemed to be pretty spry and were going up the stems, around the leaf and down again. Didn't appear to be stopping to eat when I saw them.

Any ideas on what this may be? And if it is something that needs to be torched?

Thanks! :)
 
Not that I know about, but honestly have never checked... haven't noticed any anyways....

By the way, for size reference, that's a bamboo stake that the bug is on.... so width of a pencil or smaller...
