Need some help identifying some pests in the garden. Had larvae for a while on my leaves. Added nematodes and it seemed to help. I have a couple of pests still hanging around and I am not sure what they are and if they pose a threat to my plants. There are two: appears to be possibly a fruit fly or a shore fly though not sure; the other is a creepy crawler about 1 mm long. I've had a difficult time dealing with the one pest. Freaked out that I have more. Thanks for the help!

Much respect for posting microscope pictures :) They don't look like any pests I'm familiar with....

You might try sending this pic to your state agricultural college. Should be someone there who can identify it.

Oh, maybe the first one is whitefly? The second looks like a some kind of midge or wasp.
