I'm almost positive these are aphids because they look just like the pictures I found but just wanted to double check so I know what I'm dealing with. I already sprayed everything with Captain Jacks Dead Bug Brew although I'm not sure how effective its going to be because its not listed as one of the pests it gets rid of, but its all I have at the moment so wanted to do something... If this does not work I will probably go back to the tried and true Bio Advanced 3-1 and have Captain Jacks on for a back up.

I will post a picture of the pest. Thanks for the help guys!

Definitely aphids. Captain Jacks won't work for them. I only use it for thrips and cut worms. 3-in-1 is your best choice for these.
