Hello

I have a Pittosporum tree that is covered in large clusters of black
'pin-head'
sized bugs on the trunk. There are scars all over the trunk
indicating that they
are eating the bark. The tree has just started
leaking a substance as well which
tells me that it is not well.

Any advice would be helpful as I cant find anything on the Internet
about
possible treatments/explanations.

I've tried to upload photos but dont seem to be able to. Am happy to
email them
direct if you would like to look.

I live in the UK.

Thanks in advance...
