Actually, all my pots are "infested" by them, without issue.. they come out when i water, i used some neem to kill or prevent them , they are not harmful but i hate when they fly straight in my face ahahaha i'm using 100% bio soil made by me, so obviusly it's not sterile You can wait days before watering to let them die thirsty, but don't worry, they are a piece of ecosystem:)

Sprintails are generally harmless... but they DO indicate an issue you may be having with your grow and that is overwatering... they, like fungus gnats, like to live in very wet soil... Make sure you're allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings/feedings .... Good luck!
