I would say yes. You can treat them. And disinfect your entire system. Odds are you'll be okay. Or as BC and I would do. Start over with everything clean if not to large.

I cant really tell from pics, if you have a way to examine them with some magnification you'll be able to tell better

That is what I meant by not too large. Gotta clean the whole set up regardless of size.

What soap do I use ??

MICHI-CAN · Mar 2, 2020

There are several. Just be sure it is organic. And Neem oil. Usually 1-1-1 ratio. 1tbs- 1tbs- 1 gal. Be sure to mist the entire plant. Underside especially. And wipe everything down with a 10% bleach to gallon of water. Let that air dry.

MICHI-CAN · Mar 2, 2020

The wiping down is tent and equipment. Not plants. Don't forget the pots!

Ok pal and I’m in grow bags

Works great for foliar wiping. I have used it on my orchids. Very weak dilution though. Will desiccate your leaves in a hurry. I'd avoid it. But the bleach is for everything but the plants.

Ok mate will get some neem oil tomorrow when shops open and will get a magnifying glass to
Make sure it’s mites first are you 100% sure it mites

I'd gift you one of these if I was wrong. Two just to say hello. Increase the magnification on your phone. Take pic of underside of leaves. Magnify on your computer. You'll see black and white dots.

Btw, some bugs can be found on the top of the leaf depending on their growth stage. Thrips will be there later in life for example.

Those don't look like thrips though. I don't see any snot trails.

You have to see them to id them. And they are small and move around. Sticky pads can help there.

Good luck.
