Capensis Killer
i need some help, i think these bugs are sucking the life outa my plant. there are occasional brown spot and burnt spot where they are. there's a hole in one of my sarracenia now.
when i see the smaller green ones, i just squish it, but now there's a WAYYY bigger ones, bigger than ants and its brown. it just doesnt feel right squishing the big one, is there anything i can do to get rid of them? they're not only on my CPs but in my houseplant too.

Try submerging the plant in water for a few hours. If that doesn't work get so insectides. Just remember to apply them outside
 
umm, these bugs can fly, and what would submerging the plant in water do? i squish em and make them all fly away, an hour later i come back and they're back at the same plant.
 
this is getting really bad now, i see a bunch of red spot on my sarracenia, burnt mark, hood getting crispy. i went to check closely, there's hundreds of them when i shake it, i looked closer and they wont move. when i get my hand near them to squish them, they walk sideway and hide somewhere else. i checked under the hoods of my sarracenia, they were there too.... under my clumping VFT. but surprisingly none on any of my sundews.....
