If you live in the states then get some ( spinosad ) and ( HOT SHOT NO PEST STRIPS ). these will eradicate the infestation. If your from uk you can get them on ebay, but they will have to come from the states so may take 10 days to arrive. In the meen time get some Neem oil and spray your leaves and medium. This will not eradicate the problem but will slow them down so they are managable...

If you need more help then just PM me and i will give you the full run down on what i did to destroy my infestation of thrips.

or visit my thred and scroll through untill you find where im at war with the insects. lots of great info in there for you.

just had a quick look on ebay didnt realise they were strips, is this to try catch them once they start to fly only noticed some white ones at the moment, sorry if i sound dumb im really new to this! and the neem oil, it just basicly nit loation? isnt this quite strong stuff to put on the plant? and could this effect the taste? or do you water it down? sorry to be questioning you but its givin me a right head ache just when i thought things were going really well :(

Mate not to worry. The neem oil and hot shot strip wont affect taste. Hots shot is a vapour and wont affect your plants in any way. neem oil wont affect your plants just spray on the foliage. I'll be back on later to give you the full low down. In the meen time get tho's ( spinosad and hot shots ) ordered Spinosad is the best solution for getting rid of them. do some research on it and you wont go far wrong....
