CULT: nasty little pests

I have some irises joining me indoors this winter for 
various assorted and usually odd reasons and I've noticed a 
pest that I've never seen before.

I find soft gooey blobs all over the leaves.  I've never 
seen them hatch or develop into any other form.  They are 
very small, probably the size of the head of a pin.  So far 
I've gotten rid of them by washing the fans off with soapy 
water, and by exiling a few of the worst back out doors.  
They did attack a pod I had set and eventually caused the 
stalk to rot.

I've never seen anything like this is Nebraska before.  Any 
ideas on what it might be?

where its warm enough today that those crocus may be fooled 
into popping up




It's 2004 - time to gear up for November's Presidential election. Which candidate do you support?
