What are these tiny flies
I get them on my two citrus, every day I kill them one by one, remove them from the new leaves where they seem to be. Then I spray with soapy water. But they always come back ( in a smaller number, but still)

@OrganicHecate They’re black aphids. You can use soap and water to spray your leaves -both front and back - to saturation. The eggs are hidden on the backside so it’s wise to spray the stems and anywhere a new leaf has erupted as well. They like to hide in joints. It’ll take a few days or weeks to see them go so be patient. Once you disrupt the cycle as you have been doing, they’ll fully disappear. Keep treating and checking up to two weeks after you no longer see any ti make sure the problem has been fully addressed. Best of luck and Happy Growing! 🌿
@BossChayote From what I searched they seem to be flying/winged aphids.but I'm not sure, let's see of someone has any idea.
@AnthuriumQueen thank you. This poor yuzu has no rest 🤣 first it was mites, now aphids. At least it's growing nicely
