How close together do plants have to be for them to tranfer any pests? Or do they even need to be near eachother to catch pests

If the pests aren’t prolific they would only need to be touching each other or a common wall or pot to pot to transfer, but if it’s a large amount of pests on a plant I’d quarantine and treat and monitor at least a good three feet in all directions

They only need to be in the same room if the bugs have wings. Fungus gnats fly all over in a room laying eggs in all the plants with continuously we soil.

Thrips also can fly so they can get anywhere.
