I have a herb corner with mint, oregano, thyme growing. they all seem to be attacked by a small white flies. the leaves look spotted white. what are these and how to control them? probably organically?
One kid is handful. Two kids.... Example for chaos theory. Hats off to my mum who managed three...

They are white flies, they are in abundance this year. Try soapy water.

You're not kidding, they are everywhere.
Sprayed my brussels with provado, went back 2 days later, it was like walking through a snowstorm.
Pesky little critters.
I started out with nothing.....and I've still got most of it.
