Are thrips black and 4 legged? The nursury has a pic of them but unfortunately im lacking a magnafying glass and the picture is in black and white.. so the only thing I can see is that they're small, black, fly and have 4 legs.

Thrips more thrips even more thrips

They are a tough adversary. Whatever you decide to use follow the label directions. It should list Thrips on the label as a control.

more still, know your enemy

if its thrips your plants will start getting little marks on the leaves then they will go yellow they cause severe damage plants will stunt and you will get a very poor yield not good eh? use a decent insecticide just before the lights go out if they return do again every time u see them if your plants are in flower you will get a poor yield use organic pesticide try predator mites @ natures control.com if your plants are in veg they should recover once they've all gone. not easy tho

Are these what "Pincher Bugs" are? I have had them in my backyard in the past, reason I ask is I had a sprout I had outside for a few days which I decided to bring inside under the lights and noticed a pincher bug followed my latching onto the side of the pot.

They don't spawn and have offspring like stupid springtails, do they? I have thoes guys. Springtails yeah they are harmless but they can mass produce! I used safer soap and it worked for them for the most part.
