John's Wicked New Grow

They look a bit like aphids (to me) aphids come in lots of colors.
Check the undersides of your leaves-that's where you'll find any colonies developing. (if they are aphids)
Neem oil , or a 50/50 mix of water and isopropyl alcohol should get rid of them- @InTheShed
Uses Castile soap to keep them at bay...
I'm not saying @Old Salt isn't right,but to me, they don't look quite "pointy" enough to be thrips.
 
I looked up aphids on Google and mine look like these

Maybe my Tomatoes had them and I brought them in with me?
 
They bite that's for sure.
I'll be back in ten minutes, I have to step outside and feed.
Just so you know the last payment I was working on and waterings infested that's where I found them I threw it outside.
Then I look really carefully on the other to the mystery girl had to cuz you can see them with your eyes plain as day with
My reading glasses that sit but anybody with 20/20 can see them right away.
Anyway I I hope I can say this grow and I don't have to say f*** it.
 
They aren't aphids if they bite-but whatever they are,I'd try and get rid of them.
You've caught it early enough,so you should be able annihilate the little bastards before they threaten your buds.
 
Perhaps @Pterostychus can have a look if he's online soon? He's very adept at identifying insects.
 
I got SEVEN !!! I'LL KILL THE LITTLE BAST**D's.

They bite like a "no see um's" but I do think your haven't those in SB. It's a itchy bite
 
I used to get bit by no see ums deer hunting when I was young-we have em here,but only out in the forest.
Between them and the little "deer flies" they used to drive me nuts.
I'm not sure what you've got there,John..but I'd keep killing them anyway...
 
I found a article that says pea aphids can bite and are a common pest in alfalfa fields. Maybe compare a pic for those.
 
Says they can give rashes too.

You're absolutely right "nobody".

This was my fault.

But now I need to change gear's, get into the "fixing" mode and ask for help.

Bad Parent. :(
P.S. it's so much easier to "fess up" right away and I'm good with that. :thumb:
 
Mine got the crabs from me being out in the pasture and into the room. They spread quick, I tossed a few, sprayed with IS...uphill battle, then moved them outside. Bugs went away outside.

There are only a few types of aphids that bite I guess.

I'll be back.
Blood sugar is low, need to shower and recharge.
Now I'm thinking my skin is crawling. Be back minutes for now.
I need to figure this out.

Thank you everyone for helping me out. This won't happen again, at least for the same reason anyway.

Be back at 1725.

I hope that's what they are. It's easier to deal with the devil if you are familiar.
