Uhmmm... Flees? or?

Skipping the bullshit... no pictures... no damage to plants... just tiny tiny tiny bugs... So tiny I'm surprised I could see them with the naked eye from a foot... But yea... they have invaded the coco and just seem to like to jump and crawl around in the coir... Dunno if they even want anything to do with the plant they just seem to like the coir... Think spinosad will do the trick? I sprayed neem at them last week... didn't do anything... would rather handle this shit before flowering really sets in as it is the 2 week mark of 12/12 and probably the last chance to spray or do anything that wouldn't be bad...

no way i think i got the same shit are they kinda white? but soooo small? dont seem to do anything just crawl around in the coco? what brand coco do you have?

 

[SweetNightmare]

Thanks for the fast reply yea exactly they just fucking crawl and jump... like on the side not even near the plant... weird... They are just expandable coco bricks from the local hydro shop "coco-gro" if I can remember correctly... Don't really care if they don't find their way into the buds... but I don't wanna be smoking bugs...

Kill anything you cant identify. They need to eat something and insects breed by the second. When they are done eating up what evers in that coco cube, they will move on to root hairs, or die and make billions of rotting carcusus in your roots.

get some organic pest strips ,,apart from ladybirds all bug are the enemy Attttaaaaaacccckkkk

Thanks guys yea after reading a few pages about springtails that seems to be what it is... It said to use bifen and some other spray but I don' think that would be too good for me... I'm going to go to the hydro store today and see if sm90 will kill these fuckers and I'll stick some strips in there too... You are right skipload they eat decaying shit... Probably gunna give em a good flush and then give em a dose of some murder! Guess sm90 won't do shit against em... read on some other forum that H2O2 and pest strips are the way to handle these fuckers

Apparently there's no 35% h2o2 here right now... sticky traps seem to be working though
