I think it's hard to say. But it's easeer when you say on what plant you found the eggs.

Thank you guys for answering

The hatched now, but sadly they were not butterflies or moths....but Aphids, this species:

I already putted them away...I really don't want them in my house

...my mother would also kill me and let me sleep under a bridge

Thank you,

These certainly are no Aphid eggs but from a beetle closely associated with Aphids ;-)

I don't know: they really looked like this...

Very little balck body,3x2 legs and very fast...!What do you think they could be if they are not Aphids?

Larvae of a Coccinella-species, which feed on Aphids. So it makes sense that they are found on the same brush ;-)
