# What kind of bugs are these? Are they just young gnats? I can’t find…

_Posted by brittrb on 2026-02-02_

What kind of bugs are these? Are they just young gnats? I can’t find any signs of bugs on the actual plants. I find these bugs in the trays of about 6 different plants, they vary in sizes and there were about 3 white ones under one plant. I have some gnats flying around. Please help! Thank you!
