There is always the traditional stuff like neem and every plant store has several different options organic and non for pest management usually sprays or powder
A few options I know of is planting a lot marigolds between the plants most bugs don’t like the smell you can also spread human hair on the ground every week or 2
Also there is simple options like mixing hydrogen peroxide 1 particulate and water 5 parts and add some essential oils like peppermint and spearmint you can water your plants with this and a lot of types of bugs and their larvain the soil like fungas knats

Part of the lady bugs "ladybirds" early life stages. They eat aphids. good guys.
They don't eat a lot of them like other predators but they help.

Yep Das ist definitiv eine Marienkäfer Larve, und sie sind Nützlinge, sie fressen Milben und blatläuse. Es ist ein Freund :)
Wenn du Outdoor growst kannst du nie genug in der Nähe haben, im indoor wird er wahrscheinlich verhungern es sei den du hast blatläuse im Zelt oder auf andren Pflanze was ich nicht hoffe ;)
Warte bis er zum Marienkäfer wird oder mache ihn jetzt schon raus wenn er dich stört. Lasse in drinne wenn du Schädlinge hast, und wenn du Outdoor hast las ihn auch da wo er ist. Aber mach ihn nicht kaputt

Lady Bug nymph ive seen were bigger but it does look similar I'll admit.
Beetles generally have 6 leg, Spiders have 8 and all connect to thorax. Looks like it has 4 but not sure if that's antennae or 3rd set of legs. Insects typically have six legs, not four.
If it has 6 its prob a lady nymph yeee, newborn tho. Thought it had 4 but might be legs looking like antennae. Oops.

Hello It sorta has the appearance of a lady bug nymph. Look up lady bugs and see if it's the same.

Those little shit heads that move like they are in the matrix, forgot what they are called, if you have a phone capable of installing apps you can use a insect identifier, normally very accurate, shouldn't be a problem to diagnose.

i believe its a predator beetle of somesort or a leafhopper.
it could be there to eat the pests that are already there so it may be a sign of an underlying pest
