I couldnt get a clear picture but I have what looks like white almost clear eggs, bugs or what ever they are on the leaves of my Cananga odorata top and bottom. I have no sand here so what it is maybe you all can guess? I havnt seen any damage to the leaves and I have washed them off several times but the grains are back the next day.
Thank you for any advise

Sounds like it could be aphids? It seems they would return more readily after a deluge!

Ideally, the best thing would be to show someone or get a clear picture to share so someone can make a proper indentification for the best remedy. No sense speculating then spending the money on the wrong product.
