Any idea what these bugs are, and how-to get rid of them? Thanks!

    There we go, thanks Mark!   The tiny yellow sits are moving around, the larger dots are presumably related?

    Some sort of aphid. I would use provable ultimate bug killer but a lot were argue against it as it is not good for bees.

    The shape is making me think of some kind of scale insect.....not certain though image ???   The ones I've had were outdoors and had white "fluff" underneath.

    Scale insects, paint them with methylated spirits.

    I agree with Lyn ... scale insects.
