Here's a couple of pictures of a new apple tree we were given as a present. Planted this year, keeps well watered and I took all the fruitlets/ flowers from it to keep its energy in getting established. Now on the younger leaves especially I've found this. There is also ant activity around the leaves but we have loads of ants so I wasnt greatly surprised about that. Any idea who these fellas are and how to get rid if needs be?

One of my apples and a plum have this at the moment. I have used diluted ecover as a topical spray with some success. I’ve read that neem oil works at stopping their growth but have no experience of using it.
A pocket knife is not a weapon in the right hands it’s an essential garden tool.
