Hi all. I have these stupid little bugs flying around in my room. I dont know where they are coming from, it has been -3c or colder here for the past few weeks. I managed to get a picture of the little bastard any help would be great. Does anyone know what it is or how to get rid of it. Is it even going to be a threat??? looks kinda like a fly to me but smaller.

Man it looks kinda similar to a lady bug only its wings are not hidden by a shell. It was probably in the soil. Thats a chance you take with soil. You never really know whats inside the dirt. Lady bugs I have been told are a natural pesticide. They will eat the other bugs that are on your plant. But as far as that one, I am not sure.

They dont seem to do much. All I can see is the odd small hole here and there. but it doesnt look bad.

you could hang some sticky paper and put some glue down to see what you're dealing with (a single scout or a swarm).

this shit el sort em out. Biological Thrip & White Fly Control: Swirskii System

Prey
Thrips & whiteflies are both preys of Amblyseius (Typhlodromips) swirskii. This predatory mite will diligently search for thrips larvae, but will not leave undisturbed whitefly eggs & larvae.
Amblyseius swirskii plays an important role in the biological protection of many vegetable crops. In ornamental crops, it can create a biological barrier against thrips & whitefly.
