Please identify these insects, and tell me how to get rid of them!

Question

I have something on my shrubs, and I'm not sure what is it, and therefore I do not know how to get rid of it. I do not see any insects that are moving the only thing i see is the little white lines about 1-2 mm length, and dark brown like dots that are attached to the leaves, and stems of the shrub, the bottom leaves fell down because of these insects. PLEASE HELP!!! Here is the photo of it http://www.flickr.com/photos/29518643@N08/2754167172/

Answer 1

I believe that to be white fly larvae...not 100percent but in the 90's sure...I usually find them on my Gardenia bushes the most but never that many larvae...

They have sprays for it...

A home remedy for that is...Insecticidal Soap

Ok, strong sprays of water at all affected plants and then take a spray bottle filled with a solution of homemade insecticidal soap:

Two Tablespoons of Dawn dishwashing detergent in one gallon of water will make a hefty supply for houseplants but you may need to mix up a few gallon milk jugs for those areas where you have a lot of ground to cover. This recipe can be broken down further to:

1 and a half teaspoons of Dawn liquid detergent per one quart of water.

This mixture should assist you with the removal of mites, whiteflies, aphids, thrips small scales and leafhoppers. This recipe has a very low toxicity to wildlife and humans but should not be applied on a sizzling hot day, windy, or humid. It can burn some plants with dull leaf surfaces so always test a non-visible area before you attack the whole plant or growing section.  

Answer 2

Aphids!

I had these all over my shrubs too.  I didn't have much luck killing them either.  I found this web site below that will hopefully help you.

Answer 3

Idk what its called but i have them in my yard. They get all over my dog. I hope you no what the probably is and i hope you post it that why i can get rid of them too.

Answer 4

I'm not real sure what they are but try Ortho Systemic Insect Spray. It's a general spray for aphids which are white also.Since I don't know what kind of plant it is I can't judge the size of the insect against the size of the leaf. These don't look like aphids but I think this spray will get rid of them. Follow the directions carefully. If you want to try something less chemical you could try water and dish washing liquid in a spray bottle but it looks like you don't have time to waste as the infestation is quite bad. Good luck
