Saturday Critters – Is this azalea lace bug (Stephanitis pyrioides)?

Here’s an interesting insect that I came across this year. It is all over on my balcony or in front of windows. I don’t know where it came from. It is only about 3 mm and feed on the underside of the leaves of my lemon.I identified that this would be azalea lace bug, but … what is it doing on my lemon and my mint ? I don’t have azaleas in the balcony. It seems that my lemon tree attracts all sorts of creatures less known to me. I think I should give it up if I don’t want to get my whole house full of insects.

I share this pgoto with Saturday critters Challenge
