What’s up DGC. Not sure what these are, but I keep seeing people think they have aphids an then it’s hypoaspis miles. Or some other bug that’s similar looking to an aphid. I started some seeds next to a couple clones I had all of them planted at the same time in happy frog soil. Can predator mites come with the bag of soil? I planted a bunch of seedling and a couple clones that I saw all these little guys on. I keep diligently looking for them in my flowering room but nothing as far as I can tell. So I threw all the seedling and clones out just in case. I tried to start some more clones and couple more seeds again and I had some more clones in cloner rooting and I couldn’t see any bugs in my dome. Bought new bag of happy frog planted them and then 2 days later I started to seethe same bugs again. So my question is, do I toss these too and wait for my flower room to finish and do a really good deep clean or do I try to fight them off? I’m not sure of much IMP you can do on seedling in solo cups but I don’t wanna to keep throwing away good genetics I spend money on. Thanks DGC for the help and appreciate all you guys do Scotty, Guru and Dude.

Looks like hypoaspis miles not root aphids
thanks for the input im leaning toward that to not forsure yet tho
Looks more like a soil mite to me. Are they moving quickly or slowly?
Its hard to say because I don’t have anything to compare it to but it seems like it was moving slower.
sorry I meant moving faster
If that video on youtube is this guy then youβre in good hands. That is a fast moving predator mite putting in work.
Thanks for input
I think that you are safe. Don’t see any tailpipes. I believe previous comments are correct that it’s a predatory mite.
Thanks for the input
Here another video I took of it. https://youtube.com/shorts/S91EUd4NMFk?feature=share
