Help identifying unusual spores

I have these hairy white dots I believe may be spores on the underside of the entertainment area which is not that old and I not sure if I need to be concern about this.

 

Anyone have some knowledge and recommendations for this, thanks.

Re: Spores

Hi @Kvic 

 

They look like Lacewing eggs, nothing to be worried about, as they are beneficial predatory insects. They feed off a variety of troublesome pests, including aphids, caterpillars, mealybugs and scale insects.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
