Bugged

Take some samples to a local garden center and get them ID'd. Then ask about control.

Google "identifying bugs" and you'll find a ton of sites that will help. Really surprising there is so much interest in bugs!

Here's one that claims to have 5000 identified:

Got any overripe bananas lying around? They draw little gnat-like bugs like crazy. Hard to get rid of, too.

"The monkey and the baboon was playing 7-up. The monkey won the money but he scared to pick it up. The monkey stumbled, mama. The baboon fell. The monkey grab the money and he run like hell!" - from "Dirty Motherfuyer", Roosevelt Sykes, around 1935

Check your flour or grains in the cupboard. If what used to be pure white flour has changed to something with unground flavourbuds, chuck it!

Right. We used to salvage banana stalks from the grocer's (back when bananas came on stalks, now they are evidently grown in hydroponic ponds in fronds of exactly three pounds), toss the stalk in the garage. In a couple of hours it would be covered with fleas. The stalk, with fleas, went into the burn pile.
