Thank you for your message and for contacting Iowa State University. I cannot determine the type of insect from the attached photo. Photos need to be clear close-ups and higher resolution to see the fine details needed for diagnosis. Please submit additional photos and indicate the size of the specimens, or submit samples for diagnosis to the ISU Plant & Insect Diagnostic Clinic. https://hortnews.extension.iastate.edu/pidc/insect
Thanks.
