Hi guys,
Found loads of tiny shiny bugs all over the roses and the astilbe today. Does anyone know what they are and are they harmful to the plants or not? If they are harmful what is the best way to get rid? Cheers
I've seen those on here and I think they are harmless pollen beetles.
I agree - pollen beetles - not a problem
Oh that's ok then
Makes sense they are only found where the petals are and on the astilbe they are also where the flowering part is
