Garden Pests and Diseases: tiny bugs on lily leaves underside, 1 by sterhill

I posted this in lilies and then thought I might post here too. Is this OK?

I have a number of different lilies - Casa Blancas, Star Gazers, etc. and I discovered this on the underside of ALL the leaves. This is on nothing else in the garden - just the lilies. So - I "pressure washed" each leaf (whew!) and now I need to spray? What suggestions? I love my lilies. The leaf is wet from my washing - not from the bugs. I decided I'd better grab one for a photo.

Also, ants are marching up and down the stalks like they do on the peonies....??

TIA,
