well if we knew what they were we could help u with what to use to get rid of them but the sand should work, it will suffocate them.

If i had to take a guess i'd say they were little premature flies or gnat's.. Sorry about the little info, my camera's shitty and cant take real close up pics. Thanks i'll give that a try!

probably gnats, get some NO PEST strips to get the 1's that fly and sand will kill the larvae in the soil.

Look up thrips. These buggers are a vegging nightmare.
