I must say with all the bug we have here in the deep south that is one I haven't seen here....I'm sure someone will be along soon to give you some info.

Don't know what you may have but I would spray it my favorit is diazinon and slug and snail killer

Sounds like a brown/gray aphid. They shed their exoskeletons as they grow and have legs that you can see with a glass/loop. They are the hardest of the aphids to get rid of. I usually spray with Merit(Imidicloprid) to get rid of them.
