The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of (Hemiptera: Asterolecaniidae), the oleander pit scale, for the EU. . occurs widely in tropical and subtropical areas of the world and is restricted to indoor plantings in cooler temperate regions. Within the EU, it has been reported in some literature from Cyprus, Italy and Malta though not confirmed by the NPPOs. is not listed in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2072. It is very polyphagous, feeding on plants in 69 families and exhibits a preference for fig () and oleander (). was observed completing up to three generations per year in Egypt, with peaks of presence in June, October and December. The main natural dispersal stage is the first instar, which crawls over the host plant or may be dispersed further by wind and animals. Plants for planting, cut branches and fruits provide potential pathways for entry into the EU. Climatic conditions in some parts of southern EU countries are favourable and host plants are available in those areas to support establishment. However, the magnitude of impact following introduction is uncertain. Phytosanitary measures are available to reduce the likelihood of entry and further spread. . does meet the criteria that are within the remit of EFSA to assess for it to be regarded as a potential Union quarantine pest.
欧洲食品安全局植物健康小组对夹竹桃绵蚧（半翅目：星盾蚧科）进行了欧盟有害生物风险分类。夹竹桃绵蚧在世界热带和亚热带地区广泛分布，在较凉爽的温带地区仅限于室内种植。在欧盟范围内，塞浦路斯、意大利和马耳他的一些文献中有相关报道，但未得到国家植物保护组织的确认。夹竹桃绵蚧未列入委员会实施条例（欧盟）2019/2072。它食性非常杂，取食69个科的植物，尤其偏好无花果（Ficus carica）和夹竹桃（Nerium oleander）。在埃及观察到每年可完成多达三代，6月、10月和12月出现高峰。主要的自然扩散阶段是一龄若虫，它会在寄主植物上爬行，也可能被风和动物进一步传播。种植用植物、修剪的枝条和果实为进入欧盟提供了潜在途径。欧盟南部部分地区的气候条件适宜，且有寄主植物可支持其定殖。然而，引入后的影响程度尚不确定。可以采取植物检疫措施来降低其进入和进一步传播的可能性。夹竹桃绵蚧确实符合欧洲食品安全局评估的标准，可被视为潜在的欧盟检疫性有害生物。
