Hi, will this help?

Will that help for what?
How about playing the game as it should be played?
I know you have previously expressed a predilection for top posting, but
please take into account the general usage in a group activity if you want
to participate.
Netiquette and the rules of most newsgroups ask participants not to top
post, in order to maintain the integrity of the logical flow of the
conversation.
One top posting is not too serious, but just look at the garbage which
results from more than two successive top posts in a thread in which more
than two people contribute.

Hello everyone,

Been lurking for a while )

I have a problem and I'm hoping someone on here may be able to help.

Went away for a couple of weeks and on my return found my Spearmint

looking
very sorry for itself. It "was" about 18inches tall, bushy, in a large

pot
and well used. On my return it had lost most of its leaves (all brown

and
dropped off) and the ones that were still attached to the plant had a

kind
of white blotchiness to them. I decided the best course of action was

to
cut it right back to about an inch and whilst doing that discovered lots

of
little bugs. Very weird looking things. At first i thought they were

beige
coloured spiders but looking more closely they resemble tiny crabs! Ive
tried desperately on the net to find a picture of something that looks

like
these things (no luck). Now i really dont know whether to treat it with

a
pesticide (taking into account that i use the leaves quite a lot in

cooking)
or whether just to leave it and see what happens.

Anyone know what these bugs are??????
