    In that case, no. It is completely harmless lichen that grows on trees where the air is very clean.

    Sometimes, some shrubs might need to be sprayed for things like mildew or aphids, but even then there are alternatives. Routine spraying should not be necessary in a garden.

    Many thanks.
