We also have these on the crepe myrtles. Worse though, they have done a
number on our Giant sunflowers. (nearly killing one of them). I think the
dose of Bug-be-Gone finished the poor plant off.

I have these all over the place. What are they, and do they matter?

I also have the bugs that Victoria described that run around to the back
of the stem when you get close to them all over my perennial hibiscus
(and only on it). But they don't seem to cause any problems...
thanks,
