I had this problem as well, but it was 4 weeks into flowering, so i had to be a bit more careful. I saw this method on the FAQs and it wored wonderfully, just make sure you reapply 2 weeks later so you kill all of them fuckers, if you let a few of them live, they will become a big problem again. Zap them while you can.

I read about using sticky strips in my book and it also said you could use Pyrethrum. Using chemicals concerns me but will the sticky strips get rid of all of them and where can you buy them?I had this problem as well, but it was 4 weeks into flowering, so i had to be a bit more careful.

Sticky strips don't use chemicals, at least here stateside. They use a really tacky resin and a natural oil that attracts flies. It's only as effective as the proximity to flies, which means having it close to your plants. The caveat, the fucking resin is next to impossible to get off your fingers.

Neem oil is not a chemical, it will not harm you, and if you use it with the soap/water method there will not be any neem oil residue. I understand that you do not want chemicals in your bud, neither do I.
Trust me on this.

If its thoes you should dry your humidity for a few days and they will run away.
you could also use a garlic spray to repel them.

Thanks for all your suggestions. I got the sticky paper from the local hydro store and it seems to have worked. I will also reduce the humidity and see what happens.
