HI Neil

Latin name  Eriosoma lanigerum
Common name  Woolly aphid also known as American blight
Main symptoms  Lumpy swellings on the bark and, in summer, colonies of aphids covered in white fluff on the trunk and branches

Woolly Aphid Control
Since severe woolly aphid attacks rarely occur, there is little need for woolly aphid pesticide for control. Generally, their numbers are kept low with natural predators like lacewings, ladybugs, hover flies, and parasitic wasps. If desired, you can spot treat where the aphids are most abundant using insecticidal soap or neem oil. You can also prune out and destroy infested branches when feasible. When chemical control is deemed necessary, woolly aphid insecticide such as acephate (Orthene) can be used to control these pests.
NEIL you can use some cotton wool dipped in methylated spirits and just wipe the stems the white fluffy stuff

Although the Woolly Aphids are not dangerous or poisonous to humans they're considered a notable nuisance; the irritant itself comes from what the Woolly Aphids produce - honeydew. ... The tiny sap feeders may probe the skin, giving a small bite sensation but they do not feed on humans or pets.
