I wonder if anyone could tell me if there is a problem with my Eucalyptus tree? I planted it 12 months ago and it has really shot up.. but I have noticed a few days ago, a white powdery substance on the branches...any idea what this is, whats caused it and will it kill it?

Can you see any scales that look like miniature limpets? If so it can be cleared up with spraying the tree with one of the protection spray oils, but it takes a while to clear up. Spray 3 times 2 weeks apart.
