Help! What is on my tomato plants?

This is my first year gardening and I have no idea what is on my tomato pants. They dont look like thirps, aphids, or gnats (although i'm not too familiar with any of those)... they are tiny, clear winged with green bodies with a black (or brownish) speck on them. They are all over all types of my tomatoes, and they dont seem to be on any other plants.


What are they? And what can I do?

THere are a lot of sprays (most using nicotine sulfate which is natural but deadly) that will rid your plants of them .
Reply:they are greenfly and soapy water from a spray gun will kill them easily.
Reply:Powder them quick.......before they lay more eggs.....bye and powder the ground around the plant.........good luck
Reply:Sorry We don't know what they are either. We had them on our plants too and used Sevin-5 powder to dust the plants. Took care of them and several other types of insects.
