Aphids, four-lined plant bugs, Japanese beetles, two-spotted spider mites and whiteflies are harmful insects that are attracted to the Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus).

Specifically, aphids can cause leaves to curl and galls to form. Four-lined plant bugs and two-spotted spider mites leave the foliage stippled in varying shades of light green and yellow. Japanese beetles skeletonize the leaves. But all can be controlled by insecticidal soap, except in the case of insect eggs, which respond to applications of horticultural oil.
