Does anyone know what this is? My plant is infested. There's larva in the pot :( I'm so grossed out, I need to get rid of them asap. I also have fungus gnats, I tried using cinnamon to get rid of the gnats but they keep coming back every time I water. I just watered it with a 5:1 mix of water:peroxide and thats when I noticed the gross bugs in the picture. Ugh please help!

James, now that tsugajunkie has identified the eggs, you should look up squash bugs so that you can ID the adults and the nymphs. In the meantime, squish any eggs that you find.

I was out scouring all 6 blueberry bushes this morning and there is NOTHING on any of them. I did have some japanese beetle damage a bit ago, but that has tapered off. This is such an odd little "piece of overcooked oatmeal" (love that!) I also saw another bug on the blueberries a couple weeks ago. Wasn't able to get a pic, but another teeny beetle-ish thing I was not able to ID by going through all the insects in NH (all 895 of them!) So now I've found 2 rogue, single insects of some sort on my blueberry bushes. Oh well. Was just curious what this might be. Did more reading on scale and it sounds like when they are moving they are much, much tinier. I'll keep my eyes peeled for anything else out there. At least thus far it seems to be a single critter.

I find those kinds of insects hard to identify. Much depends on whether it has one or two pairs of wings. Could be a fly (Diptera) of some kind if it has one pair of wings. In this case, it is more important where the package was from, than where you are.
