Agh! PESTS!

[BagseedSamurai]

So im giving my plants a good looking over, doing my LST'ing and everything and I see a ladybug on a leaf. Im like "aww, thats cool!" then i got to looking closer and on the pot, and crawling on the soil (really hard to see) are these little white things about the size of pinheads. Ive never actually been plagued by pests before, i usually take better preventatives.

Sorry i cant get a pic of them, theyre too small.

Anyone know what they are or might be?

Well the good news is : Ladybugs will eat them Probably why ya saw one there. Nature's pesticide, nothin cleaner!

yeh unleash a bag of ladies in there they will be gone shortly after, you can pick em up at your local hydro shop usually( kinda messy though when they die or if you dont have a sealed environment). I also have heard nothing but great things about Organicide......Good luck bro

Quick question: Do you know how you got them in the first place??? If not find out or take numerous future precautions this way you insure that they wont come back now or in future grows.....LAte

The ladybug is still in the room, chilling with my plants so im thinking one will be enough for a minor infestation. I usually take bettewr precautions (organic pesticides) buuut...oops. Forgot this time around. Doesnt look bad though. I just dont like new bugs in my room!

Sophisto: I really dont. I was gifted the cits so it mightve came with them but i didnt see any infestation signs when i was rooting them..at all.

Did you fix the problem!!??? I noticed the same thing. Looks like little pieces of salt walking around down there. Did you figure our what they were exactly and how to get rid of them?
