I need help! Is this thrips? I saw a slender black bug crawling and it’s making me nervous! Any help/ input appreciated!

Agh thank you! I immediately quarantined him and checked the plants around but they all look okay. I hope I caught it early enough!
1 LikeThat’s good! But be super careful and check your other plants again in a few days because thrips can fly

Thank you, I will! I’m thinking of giving him a shower and then spraying him in neem oil. Is there any other pesticides or things to do to fight the infestation?
0 LikesNeem oil is good. Or you could use insecticidal soap. Treat a couple times a week until they’re gone. You could use a systemic pesticide to stop them from coming back
