Ok so I currently do not have a picture of this bug, but I'm posting so I don't forgot. Anyway this red and black fly thing always comes when I water. Now I know it's not a fungus gnat. Those are separate. All I do for them is turn on my essential oil diffuser. This red and black bug just chills on the wall of my grow area. I normally only see 1 or 2 at a time. I kill it and then I don't see them again until I water again. The insect looks sortve like the one below but not the same.
Gosh. I have no idea what that is. I've not seen it before and I ran my picture list of MJ pests/bugs and didn't see that particular one on the site. If you're not seeing any damage from them, I wouldn't worry too much. It's spider mites, thrips and fungus gnats that are horrible to deal with and it doesn't appear to be any of those. It's probably something that just figured out a way to get into your room/space and has laid eggs and they're hatching out. TWW
