Brandon, It sounds as tho you might have "spittlebugs." We've had them here and got some stuff from the nursery that I just sprayed on them and they dissappeared. They come back now and again. I didn't get it on my habs last year, but if you spray them early enough, you should be able to keep them healthy. You can tell if it's "spittlebugs" if you look inside the white thingy and there's a tiny black bug inside. Otherwise, I don't know what it might be. Good luck. ("`-'-/").___..--''"`-._ `6_ 6 ) `-.
