Hey Fellow hobbyist. Could use a little help to identify this insect. Noticed a few of these recently flying around between the light and canopy. Green Cleaner killed off all my whiteflys but didn't seem to have any effect on these.

I've been searching and trying to key that bug since it posted. I think you're right, troutman.

Keif Stoned - Thanks for stopping by

ganja4 - Tried Green Cleaner along with several other home remedies but these buggers just bath in it. Only see a few of these but want to eradicate before the population takes hold. Thanks for the tip. Will try increasing the vinegar ratio.

Mikell - Thanks for the website. Closest match found on https://www.insectidentification.org/insect-search-results.asp was a species of Birch Aphid.

troutman - Thanks, I thinks you got it.

buzzmobile - Thanks for your help.
