Finding a few little white bugs, almost transparent, looks like some sort of mite.they don't fly, they kind of hop.
​​​​​​Any idea's what they might be ?
remedy..needed?
Thanks
 
Pictures will be the easiest way to identify, but it sounds like springtails. Are they in the soil? Jumping around after a watering?
 
I'll put a watchful eye next time I water. I think you're right they're coming from the soil when I water. If so are they going to be a problem,?

If they are springtails, they’re actually quite beneficial and won’t harm your plant.

If it’s absolutely infested I might treat the top soil to keep the numbers low, but my experience with springtails was super positive. They stay in the soil and just work their magic.
