Unknown bugs in my roots

Hey all,

I was moving my clones into bigger pots last night and found these little silver looking bugs in my roots mass, did not get a photo unfortunately. They vary in size, also seem to hang outside the bottom of the pot.

Any one got an idea of what they are and do I need to nuke them some how?

I have a weekly spray with neem or pyrol as it is, so not sure how they continue to live?

Thanks

I just googled root aphids and they are ugly fuckers. For a moment there I hoped you talked about springtails but a pic would be nice though.

 

Blessings

Well I just googled springtails and seems I was wrong in what I had seen in my garden, seems I have springtail and not root aphids. This is a small blessing as what I have read is root aphids are near impossible to get rid of, now back to springtails how do I control these little bugs?

Thanks in advance.
