New Zealand Christmas Bush

Posted by Twosheds NSW Australia (My Page) on

My New Zealand Christmas Bush has been invaded by some sort of insect. It (the bug)is a brownish-grey colour and about 3/4 of a centimetre long. Several branches are riddled with holes and are dying. Does anyone know what can be attacking my tree? What is the treatment? Will other trees and shrubs in the vicinity by affected?

I have one growing in my yard. It is quite bushy and produced reddish green fruits with little spikes all over.
