Never had a bug from ff, but roots 707 bag was nasty as shit. That was loaded with bugs nats mites and a random ass spider. Never again will o go roots. Just my opinion.

I got lots of bugs from roots organic soil, I mite of even got root aphids from a bag of roots organic,

Ocean forest and happy frog do seem to have fungus gnats some times. but not as bad as roots

just a quick thought, the fact that a bag of soil, regardless of brand, has some bugs in it may not be attributed to the manufacturer of the soil, but possibly where the distributor stored the bags, or in transport, bugs found a small hole, layed eggs in the bag.

Roots is similar to FF . Most of roots soil has compost in it, anytime you add compost to a soil you will have bugs. If your looking for a premium soil with no bugs, try Black Gold . There are a ton of premium soils on the market, i have just listed one.
