Thrips

So after using pest soap, neem oil and a hotshot pest strip i still found a freaking thrip flying around my tent. I also used hotshot flying insect killer seems to work if they get soak with it but WTH?? I inspected my tent and saw several under pot pans, some looked like they were sleeping or idk but some were alive just crawling down there, i cleaned with clorox wipes and insect soap and a spray of flying insect killer, hopefully i get it under control before they go ballistic. Any advice out there?

      Should've asked earlier...

      Are you letting the soil dry out really well, between waterings? Drying out the soil helps slow them down.

      • Yeah i think thats why they were under the pans, think last water was like 4-5 days ago. I moved the top soil a bit to see if i could find some bugs, i did find 2 but i think it dry down to like couple inches very moist under that tho

      • thrips are evil i lost two tents worth about 6 months ago. but my veg tent i tried several thing and i finally got some stuff called clean green.follow instructions on the bottle. i took plants out sprayed them and soil drench. then i sprayed the tent down with bleach water then sprayed with strait peroxide let dry. and that worked for me.but they are hard to get rid of. good luck

            • learning! havent experienced thrips but wth insect infestations you have to be proactive and you will ALWAYS need to reapply! i use an azamax with insecticidal soap as a surfactant. most soaps wil work if you can contact the insect
