The nymph of an immature spittlebug or froghopper creates a foamy mass known as cuckoo spit to avoid dehydration and protect itself from predators. These insects primarily feed on plant juices and usually don’t cause significant damage to plants. However, they can spread a plant pathogen called Xylella fastidiosa. Xylella fastidiosa is a bacterium that affects more than 600 plant species and threatens agricultural crops. Olive, coffee, almond, citrus, plum, peach, blueberry, and grape crops are

Foamy blobs on plants, especially ornamental plants, are most likely from the nymphs of froghoppers…aptly called, “spittlebugs!” The foam isn’t actually spit, but a byproduct from them sucking the sap from plants, and it protects them from extreme temperatures and predators. However, they don’t really do much, if any damage to your plants, and are usually found at the base of plants, so you don’t really need to worry about them, but, you can simply spray them off with water if they bother you th

Sometimes you may notice a wad of wet bubbles in your yard or garden, as if someone spat on your plants. This is often a sign of spittlebugs, which tend to be not major in small numbers but can inhibit the growth of plants when it becomes a big infestation. 🗣A spittlebug is the larval or young form of an adult insect called a froghopper. After hatching from eggs, the young spittlebugs climb on the stems of plants and drink their sap. 🗣Their byproduct of bubbly foam can resemble spittle, but co
