White flies, get most out with water then spray under the leafs with a diluted dish soap solution or, preferably, insecticide soap like safer’s. Add a yellow sticky trap and repeat until they are gone.

Dang I just put in some nematodes to fix a gnat proble, now I got these!  
Thank you for the tip, I will get right on it before it spreads to my others.
