It's kind of pretty. Take it outside.

Id love to know what they are as well. I see them on my outdoor plants often but they never seem to be munching on anything.

Ohhh yup. They are bad. They suck the juice out of your plant. They also attract other bugs by leaving a sweet liquid on the plant. A candy striped leafhopper

Yea a leaf hopper like others said. You can buy traps for them they are attracted to. They eat what's inside of the trap then die. Kinda like a mouse trap. Them and grasshoppers suck. Grasshoppers in particular can do lots of damage.

I like to put praying mantis on my plants, one per if possible. Lq. Seaweed is very helpful to your plants. 90 components, toughens the trunk & limbs so much, spider mites can't bite through, plus a natural root stimulator.

You do know they have the potential to bite you, right?

I've been bit by lots of things, but due to being very careful as to not harm the Mantis, I move them on a small branch. Had a friend that watered & feed a female on window sill. Flies, bugs, etc. She had babies. Very cool.

Here's my pet bug. I handle him/her (too young to know) often enough. The black skinned bald patch means it's about to molt.

I have a philosophy when it comes to bugs , the best beneficial bug to have around is a lady bug, anything else kill it.

Them damn leafhoppers. Got some all over my Blue Petrols in my yard. White ones....black ones..and them big red and blue fukers. They are not good for cannabis and i tried spinosad a few days ago...no luck. And sprayed azamax...neem...and a little rubbing alcohol on them about an hour ago....little fukers were rite back. Whose got the remedy for these fast little bastards? Heard they bite humans too. I want them gone. They are putting holes and hopper burn on my beautiful blue petrol #6.
