Tiny light tan bugs that move quickly on Phal
Default Tiny light tan bugs that move quickly on Phal

Hello! I have a fairly new Phal from Wegmans (about 6 mo) and after treating mealy bugs with alcohol swabs, I am now noticing a lot of very tiny, about the size of a pinpoint, light tan colored bugs that move over the leaves very quickly. They emerge from the leaf crevices and also succump to the alcohol swabs. Can anyone tell me what they are and if they are a danger to the plant. And if so, how can I eliminate them? Thank you all.

THANKS EVERYONE!.. for your comments. My Phal is 6 mo old and is very healthy with no visible leaf damage to date, so I am inclined to believe that these mites are predatory. I did order Liquid Ladybug but I am probably not going to use it. Thanks all!
