Im fairly new at growing. I'm growing inside in a tent and I've got these bugs who just like to climb the plants and bite the underside of the leaves. I've tried neam oil, and that worked for a while, then they returned.

How can I get rid of these things for good?
I've trimmed my plants to almost nothing just trying to get rid of these. I'd like to spray them with insecticidal soap and neam oil again. And clean the tent. But I really don't want them coming back.

Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue.
I’ve sprayed insecticidal soap and flushed soil with peroxide but they seem to come back. Would hate to scratch this run but seems my plants are behind.. frustrating. Fans, tent, exhaust fan and carbon filter and all I can think of is the bag of soil I bought was already contaminated. Good luck.

Luckily your using a tent so you can stick a buncha lady bugs in there. They will chomp those green critters up like tasty treats. If you want to make sure they don’t fly around off your plants coat them with a diluted Coca-Cola and water spray. They won’t be able to fly and actually stay on your plants. They’re wings will be too heavy and sticky to fly

can't identify what those are right away but that is annoying. Ladybugs will help for sure to stop the problem. I'm starting To see some fungus gnats in my pots myself.

sticky yellow paper traps work good for fungus gnats. Make sure they hang right above the growing medium. They’re naturally attracted to yellow and can’t resist

I’m also having some issues with bugs today and plan to try some purecrop1 on them. Anybody know what these bugs are? Thanks, B8KD
