Bumps on nerve plant leaf

what's up greggers? 🌱 πŸͺ΄ lol i am concerned about these bumps on the underside of my fittonia's leaves 🫣 i think it might be scale but i couldn't find any pics of scale on this plant that look quite like this...any ideas? #Fittonia #NervePlant #PestControl
4ft to light, indirect
3” pot with drainage
Last watered 3 weeks ago
It could defo be some kind of bug, even if it’s not scale. I’d remove it, give the whole plant a good cleaning, hit it with a bit of neem or insecticidal soap, just to be safe, and watch it for a while. Are they pitted or are they only raised? It’s hard to tell πŸ˜… if they’re pitted, it’s probably not a bug but rather some type of damage
@rebbieirl i have treated with insecticidal soap recently so hopefully that helps! 🀞🏻 haha it was hard to get a photo, they are so tiny but they are raised little bumps! thanks for the tips πŸ’š
@dirstenkunst ah gotcha! Good plan! Hopefully whatever they are they don’t come back! 🀞🏻 and no worries!
