when i opened up the cage to day to do some cleaning, i noticed all of these little flies flying around inside, and what i am assuming are egss over the stems of my umbrella plant. Im hoping that the flies are not harmful to my cham, i dont think they are. i work in a greenhouse so, we have a lot of stuff to spray plants down to kill flies, or whatever else, and i want to spray down my plant to kill them, but im just worried that it will be harmful to him. What i was planning to use is organic and it says it is safe to use, and not harmful to animals, but im still a little scared to use it. i was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if so what was used.

get a new plant.
Put the prepped new plant inside your cham cage.
take out the infected plant and do the organic spray if you want.
after the plant is healthy again. Prepped the plant (washing with liquid soap) before reinstating the plant back into your cham cage.
i talked to some woman and she said that it may be because of the humidity, and the plant staying really moist, so i just dont want this to continuously to keep happening. i think im just going to buy a new one, treat the one i have, then i can regularly switch the two in and out, thanks for your input. anyone else have this sort of problems with their plants?
