Looks like WhiteFly, they lay eggs in a circle & have all this whispy
white stuff.
A soap or oil spray would do. I was told that the eggs hatch every three
days so you need to
spray often until they are gone. They love Hibiscus & large leafed
plants.
I think I used Neem oil.
Good luck

Use 1 part dish-washing soap (liquid) to 40 parts water. the mix will
soak into their spiracles and drown them. This works for other baddies,
too, such as aphids. For scale, use 1 part soap to 20 parts water, leave
it sit for about 15 minutes, then wash off the plant. -- Over here, we

on CBC's Radio Noon (Pntario only), and is revered by all gardeners in
