Unknown Bug on my Nerifolia
Hi guys,
I having a problem with a bug on my nerifolia. Apparently is kind of the sucking types because the leaves (the new ones) are distorted. I also have seen a lot little brown ants all around the tree, maybe they are involve in the leaves distortions. Should I apply malathion ![]() Any help? Thanks in advance -link

Sounds like aphids, the ants come along and eat the honeydew left by the aphids. Probably something less hostile safers incecticidal soap for instance.
