My Kalanchoe and my Jade both keep getting bugs and I’m not sure how to get rid of them. Please help! I’ve tried spray with water or using a little toothpick to scrape them off. Repotted them. What else can I do?

Try wiping them off and getting organic bug killer

getting insecticidal soap/systemic granules & diatomaceous earth will be the best course of action for pests :)
1 gillaLooks like aphids on the jade plant and thrips on the other plant. - Isolate both from each other and from your remaining plants. - Aphids can be knocked off with spray from a hose or shower if in an apartment. - Thrips need to be treated with a soapy dishwater solution mixed with isopropyl alcohol. You can spray aphids too. Spray a couple of times a week until they are gone. - Spray the area, under the pots/leaves and nearby plants. Spray the soil. Avoid systemic poisons. They have lung cancer warnings and require protective gear to apply. Then, you are exposed full time.

Sprayed with a combo of vegetable oil, dawn, and water (that’s what Google said) and now a bunch of healthy looking leaves are just dropping like flies ☹️
