I think I have a confirmation. Confused flour beetle is the answer I got for a queries I sent to a company specialising in benificial insect. they suggested I should get rid of the soil and start all over. But I gave it a try with diatomaceous earth and it seems to have done wonders. I dusted the surface of the soil with DE a few times and the stem of my plants and have not seen any since. I think I might have gotten the bugs with the rice hulls

If you have a lot of them I would be worried. Maybe the bugs come from the soil your using ?

I started finding them like 1 week ago alongside with some other bugs so started to be more adamant with my neem oil spray and now I find them all over my house, I changed my water reservoir yesterday and found a bunch of them floating in the water. But I have found them both on the plants and in the soil. I do have some damage on my leaves but I think that's due to something else. will make a new post to show all the little crawlers I found in my grow and with the damaged leaves. Living soil is scary inn the beginning with all the bugs moving around.

It does not look like any common plant pest. Where did you found it ? (Soil, leafs) How many ? Sizes ? (All same)
