It looks a little like Whitefly from the pics. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk |

Whitefly. Get yourself some lacewings to eat them. In the meantime, you can vacuum them off to reduce numbers. |

I guess I'm going to say that the focus isn't quite good enough to tell. It's either whitefly like the others have stated or it's aphids and their sheds. I think it's the aphids but I can't zoom in far enough to tell for certain. You probably have a lot more of these on the underside of the leaves. |

Agree with Scotty, it's a bit hard to tell from that photo, you need to zoom in a bit closer. Looking at it more closely, it is possible the darker blobby things are aphids, but not really possible to say without a clearer photo. |

I used to use neem oil to deal with pests like whitefly and aphids and it worked well. Nowadays with the system being a bit neglected as I focus on other hobbies, I've found after a couple of years not spraying the natural predators are now sorting them out. |
