Hiya all, is anyone else finding that there are a lot of black bugs about that are attracted to orchids? They are driving me mad!

Can you update your profile to show where you live? Your bug problem might be particular to your area? Others who live near you might have some insight?

I live in FL and the orchids I have outdoors have a lot of little black bugs on them. They are not hurting my vandas, they are sucking the clear sweet liquid being secreted by the happy plants.

Do you have clear dots of liquid on your plants?
