These insects damage plants by removing fluids. Heavily infested trees can be seriously injured or killed by this insect. Scale insects also secrete large amounts of honeydew, which gives the plant an unsightly sticky appearance which attracts large numbers of ants, wasps, and yellow jackets. Black sooty mold develops on the honeydew creating a dark gray film on lower leaves and plants below the tree.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Garden Rx Product Recommendations\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\">Bonide All Season Spray Oil<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Bonide Tree and Shrub Insect Control<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Bonide Systemic Insect Control<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Control<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\">Apply Bonide All Season Spray oil in March to kill over-wintering nymphs.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">\n<p class=\"p1\">Bonide Tree and Shrub or Systemic Insect control can be used in the summer to kill adult scale populations.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mortonarb.org\/plant-and-protect\/tree-plant-care\/plant-care-resources\/magnolia-scale-neolecanium-cornuparvum\/#overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ADDITIONAL RESOURCES<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/mailchi.mp\/platthillnursery.com\/r0wxmrag49\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-43093 size-large lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/platthillnursery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Platt-Hill-Nursery-subscribe-button-neem-plant_-1024x339.png\" alt=\"Platt Hill Nursery - subscribe button - neem plant_\" width=\"1024\" height=\"339\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/platthillnursery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Platt-Hill-Nursery-subscribe-button-neem-plant_-1024x339.png 1024w, https:\/\/platthillnursery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Platt-Hill-Nursery-subscribe-button-neem-plant_-980x324.png 980w, https:\/\/platthillnursery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Platt-Hill-Nursery-subscribe-button-neem-plant_-480x159.png 480w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/339;\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are worried about fungus or pests infecting your garden, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/platthillnursery.com\/contact-us\/\">visit<\/a><\/span> Platt Hill Nursery <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">today!
