About a month ago I noticed these on my Rosemary - they almost seem to be splitting open the stems of the rosemary/coming from within the plant. They were a bright almost terra cotta color before I sprayed them with neem. What should I do?
please Id these eggs/pests on my Rosemary
Need a closer picture.
If it is a pest, look up scale insects. Odd they are so clustered.
If it is eggs, those are big eggs.
Def not scale bugs - I know what those look like....
here are more pics :
I should have warned how disturbing it is to look at ;/
I don't know what it is, but something is damaging the plant in this area, not just laying some eggs. I would cut back the Rosemary as severely as needed to get rid of it all. Cut well into the good, healthy wood in case there is some disease issue going on, too.
Rosemary has a pretty strong come back. Do not be afraid to cut.
Thank you! Apparently it's not from bugs but a bacterial infection :

Wow!
Yes, I would prune it out WELL away from the affected areas.
How can exterminators help with a bacterial infection? Stop spamming!
