plant quandry...

So I've got plant troubles. I've been growing some seedlings for several months. They're dying, and there are little tiny itty bitty white crawly things that spin silk all over the leaves. Anyone know what the crawly things are or how to get rid of them? Mighty Guin? Anyone? Beuller?

I'm not sure...I've seen buggies like that before but I don't know what they are. Have you tried an insecticidal soap spray? You can find them at places like Lowe's, I think. I think my mom uses one with orange oil in it - far less scary to be around chemical-wise and orange oil dissolves exoskeletons on contact.

You'll have to spray them frequently to put the kibosh on 'em, but something like that'd work. Good luck!
