What are these little white bugs all over my plant? Im thinking they mite be lice but I would think lice is a little bit smaller. I can get pics later. What do I do about them.

I all ready have put 2 bowls of beer by my plants for bugs but I dont know if these bugs will go for beer.

Spider mites. Neem oil. Beer's only used to get rid of slugs.

Wow!

It's that new-fangled breed; The Giant 'eats-like-a-caterpillar' Spidermite.

Yes, I do agree with ^ sarcasm. Doesnt quite look like spidermite damage. Did the white bug hop when you tried to touch it? How big was it? Could of just been a speck of white for all we know. Guess I should see the pics before i move my fingers.

They are not spider mites. I just saw a pic of them and they are not mites. There big enough to see without a magnify glass. You can see there eyes. But they seem to have a hint of green on them mixed in with the white but that mite just be because of the green background.

note: you can see them living in the nodes of the plant.

EDIT: after looking over more pics, I think they are white flies. Thats the closest they look.
