Citrus Fruit & Orchards

Possible citrus pest?

6 years ago

Never seen this before on my Eureka lemon or any citrus before and it isn’t all over but just a few leaves and even stems. I’ve attached a photo because I’m not even sure how to describe it. Makes me think it’s some pest egg or something. Anyone ever seen something like this before?

I have seen that be fore but I don't remember. Michael Jackson once said One bad egg doesn't spoil the whole orchard dude. ............ So go ahead an give citrus another try.

Good call on the Lacewigs. I think maybe that is it. Certainly hope so. Could use some of them hanging around my citrus.
