White bugs that appear in the soil where you grow flowers may be whiteflies, a very common pest that can be caused by many reasons. Its harm is very serious. It will directly suck the juice in the plant, causing lack of water and reduced yield. It will also inject toxins into the plant while sucking the juice, and cause mold, thereby contaminating the leaves and seriously affecting the appearance. It not only directly affects the plants, but also spreads various viruses and causes other diseases.
