I’ve found these little tiny white bugs crawling around my plants. Not spider mites. What are they and how to I get rid of them?? Google is worthless.

Not sure what you have here. But to the shower Batman! Give that plant (foliage) a spray down. An insecticidal soap also would work. Quarantine this plant. Check other plants if it was near.

Sounds about right!!!

### nosugartonight comentó el 2024-03-27

What kind of plant?

#### Tamara respondió el 2024-03-27

It’s a honey berry

### HDF comentó el 2024-03-28

Aphids

#### Tamara respondió el 2024-03-28

You think so? None of the images I’ve googled look like this. But I haven’t found anything that resembles it!

### nosugartonight comentó el 2024-03-28

Maybe the pest in the picture is not the adult form. Based on the size of the critter I was also leaning aphid though I agree it doesn’t look a lot like an aphid. It just looks more like an aphid than anything else. I have some honey berry too but mine are dormant in ground outside

#### Tamara respondió el 2024-03-28

I thought it might be larva form, but it still didn’t pull anything up, Google was not helpful. I didn’t see any adults. I want to put my honey Berry outside, but it’s very tiny right now!

### nosugartonight comentó el 2024-03-28

Aphids are just egg, nymph adult stage. At some point they develop wings. Did you buy two. The plants aren’t super common and you need a female form and a male form if you want the berries

#### Tamara respondió el 2024-03-28

I did buy two but the other one died. I’ll have to buy it again.

#### nosugartonight respondió el 2024-03-28

You should see if they have a warranty

### Madz comentó el 2024-03-28

Those look like whiteflies. You need to hose it off. Add yellow sticky traps to catch them. You can also use a soap spray. I prefer dr bronners but any dish soap should work. The website I got this from was wallygrow . Com

#### Tamara respondió el 2024-03-28

The things that look like eggs did remind me of white flies, I guess I’ve never seen the larva before.

#### Tamara respondió el 2024-03-28

There are no adults present so they must’ve come in with some contaminated seeds or soil
