Sure sounds like aphids to me.

My cousin in New Jersey, who is not online, asked me to inquire for her. She has an infestation of what sound like beetles or mites. They are convex in shape, green, bigger than aphids, about the size of a small pinhead. They are found on new tender growth. They do not move, but when she goes after them with an alcohol Q-tip, they scurry away. They do not bother other houseplants, only orchids. Anybody know what this is?
