Just when I thought little larvae in my cv's buds and grasshoppers eating their leaves were the worst I'd seen in terms of pests, I find mites yesterday and these guys in the pics today. I think they are leafhopper larvae, another sap-sucker which can leave huge damage on leaves  Roll Eyes Angry Can anyone confirm?

Here's the damage a leafhopper will do. Like spidermites it sucks the green right out of the leaf, sort of like a kid with a snow cone. The damage on this leaf was done by one leafhopper. I'm just glad I caught the other ones before they grew up.
