Because they where born from satans blood and monkey tails and sent here to eat our plants and rape our pocket books

I think GMO covered this one in one fould swoop. Cracks, crevices and on clothing. The wind is what let's bugs travel. If you have a neighbour with bugs, you're sure to get something.

Lucky our new neighbours have tidy and well kept gardens here and no cottage like organic and left to the devices of nature type set up.

It's a part of soil growing I have now accepted. Its how you deal with them. If you have a strong healthy plant they will always go for the weaker victim.

"Insects and disease are the symptoms of a failing crop, not the cause of it. It's not the overpowering invader we must fear but the weakened condition of the victim."

This phrase is what made me think differently. The odd bug in my living soil is all good. But an infestation means something is out of balance.

I just blast them with my home made spray which keeps them down along with amendments like neem cake (never oil) and insect frass.

Yea I agree I find that people do get some of these critters just from certain soils they purchase aswell

My 1st ever grow, it isn't on here or anywhere else. I'd never considered forums before, anyway, I had a bag of some soil with bat guano added. Jeez, I never seen so many different types of bugs, I still think I'm getting rid of them now
So yeah, damn soil out of a bag and clones as mentioned.

Exactly, trying to keep healthy plants is the first line of defense.

I took a massive NL5 clone back that I had given as a small cut. It had been vegged outdoors for months in goodness knows what soil and wasn't that happy.

The excitement if getting a tree like plant back from a cut I made overrided the sensible approach of IPM and I just stuck it in flower.

Both tents ended up full if spider mites, lost two flowering plants and it delayed the schedule getting them sorted.

Be very careful brining in clones, even if they are your returning offspring!
