Update for u guys..

Day 19, aftr using the 'dyn-a-mite' mixed with 1L water, sprayed on leaves ontop and under, surface of soil, pots and whole room, no signs of any more thrips! Which is great!! Stuff seems to hav worked

Even tho it looks clear.. Im still goin to spray them again prob day 21.. Used around 500ml for sprayin so havin another sprays worth in bottle, and also hav 25ml left of Dyn-a-mite to mix with another L of water, guna use until its all gone!!

U guys reccomend sprayin any insecticide/pesticide once every week? 2wice @ most ?

BOOOM!!

i realise you guys finally figured out they are thrips , but the first thing i thought of from your first post was thrips , you gave a perfect description of them right down to the silvery trails they leave behind

if you see them returning try to find spinosad or an insecticide with spinosad in it , a couple years ago it was the only effective insecticide for the bastards

if your in canada and some few other countries its doubtful you will find spinosad and would have to get an american friend to get it and ship it to you

best of luck with never seeing them again

I use canna cure,a sticky spray. Is pricey though.

Update..

Day 29, everything looks great! No signs of any insects!, great!! That 'Dyn-A-Mite' folia spray really works, i used half the bottle which gave me 2 full sprays with it, the first spraying i did it under a very low light, simple desk lamp overlooking canopy whilst i sprayed the whole area!, didnt think i needed to do it a second time but i did just incase.. Definatly reccomend the product to someone in same position..

For me i was kinda lucky because i caught them very early and they didnt 'overrun' the area! Hopefully i wont return to the infirmary!

Thanks to all the help from the people on this site!!
