Thrips (likely Thysanoptera)

Found globally on various plants, flowers, crops, and sometimes indoors or on outdoor furniture.

Most species feed on plant sap by piercing cells; some are predatory or fungal feeders.

Thrips are known for being very active, flying or hopping when disturbed. They have fringed wings and go through a unique metamorphosis that includes non-feeding 'pupal' stages.

They are major agricultural pests that can transmit plant viruses. To humans, they may bite occasionally causing minor, temporary skin irritation, but they do not transmit human diseases.
