Having trouble identifying what insect I have

Hi,

I have heaps of little white/yellow bug looking insects in the soil. So small you can only just see them with the naked eye. they're are oval shaped with 8 or so little legs. I am struggling to kill them. I spray the top surface of the soil but they are in the rest of the soil, what should I do!?

I have looked and researched about all the common insect problems but can't seem to pin point it. At first I thought they're were spider mites but everyone talks about them being on the leaves. I can't see anything on the leaves, just some leaves turning yellow/white and dieing, plant is also growing slow.

Any idea?

Thanks,
Adz

Anyone? :/

Are these the little buggers?



If so, don't worry, they're friendly...Hypoaspis Miles, they just live in the surface layer of soil, and they're TINY

But...If they aren't these little guys, you might wanna try a better pesticide...lol

Hi Meta, I think they might be aye! I'll see if I can get a photo.
Cheers

Dude, if they ARE Hypoaspis Miles, you're in luck, they're a predatory mite that chows down on fungus gnat larvae and other soil dwelling buggers...I couldn't ever get a good pic, but here's another look

Yep, that's them! But! I have plant problems, so I guess I'm back to the drawing board then.... hhhmmmmm
