Hey, I found a small whiteish bug on my orchid today. Can y’all comment photos of all the bugs y’all have encountered over the years with a name, because I couldn’t get a photo of it. 😭😭😭  
Edit: I got it from a local grower.

Thrips, scales, mealy bugs, aphids, white flies and thousands of other insects are white. Better to spend time treating with insecticidal soap or neem oil if you can’t identify the exact type of bug.
