scale

Here are some other ways. Spray with an "all seasons" oil spray mix.
You can also add a systemic into the soil that when taken up by the tree will poison the critters.
I have also used my own mix of a vegetable oil mix of 2 tablespoons to the quart.
Some people dab them with a cotton swab wetted with rubbing alcohol.

Good luck.
