Hello, so I went in my tent today and found/killed a small orange flying type bug. I was wondering if anyone knows what this bug is, and how to get rid of them if there are more. Sorry for the quality it was a smol boy.
Yet another name that bug post!

Looks like gnats to me! If so, then yellow sticky traps work really well. Cut a sheet into strips, and place them around the stem of each plant. Hang full sheets from the lights, and stick a sheet of two on the tent walls. cant have too many!
If the above doesnt stop em outright, move onto Diatomaceous earth (thin layer over the top of the soil) - A good perlite layer also works for mild cases.

Quite plump for a gnat unless there are different species

I mean I had a fungus gnat issue before, but yeah looks much too large for a gnat and it’s orange in color; I also have a mosquito dunk in the reservoir which corrected that issue weeks ago.
