I was having mite and bug issues so i set my out fan through my plants. Does it make bad effects ?
Here are pics and videos....

Could not upload the video of it but it barely shakes the leaves
I thought it can make bad effects on fox tails to get them dry brown quickly ?

Spider mites don't fly they only crawl, or ride the wind.
I cleaned the leaves affected they were only few of them but i though it is better to have airflow on plants soo i took the out fan and set through leaves check please from
pictures

*the hole was the place of out fan now i changed it place and using it as a airflow on plants
** i have one in fan on bottom and that hole on top would be enough to let air out by itself

Well one or many does not matter I think. They can re-populate soo easily I m just trying to get rid of them all.

What bugs, theres many different types of mite and fly, if you'd said thrips id say take action but if you said gnats id say dont worry about it.

Your question is not very specific and with two really small plants such as the ones you have id question why you cant just manually innihilate the whole population between two fingers.

I already cleaned the bugs right now I question the airflow effects if i did right to change fans place from out to plant or not
Could you please read my posts about drying foxtails and the one with pictures
Thx

A fan blowing on your plants isn't a bad thing, no ill effects that I'm aware of anyways, maybe some wind burn if you have it blowing to hard too close, but the breeze will help prevent pm, bud rot, help dry out top of medium to prevent gnats.the downside, as I said possible wind burn but it's easily avoided, I have a 10,000 btu ac unit blowing on mine, no mites yet:peace:

With the carcinogenic nature of chemicals given off by plastic when it comes in contact with uv rays you may want to think about getting those dinosaurs out of the planter anyways, they are cute, but what if they are lead painted?

Not to mention the T-Rex is a little touchy feelly, and doesn't wear protection. Three other dinosaurs came down with STDs.
...just not right.

All that space and those big ole pots just for those little plants? If those are autos you did something wrong. Next time plant them straight to final pot.
