That could possibly be true, but they can also come from store bought soil. Whether or not its bad bugs remains to be seen with Tokal soil. Screen it before use. I do know, grown outdoors in this soil, the only bug problem I had was from two legged bugs who got my medicine. That also said, I never had any problems with bugs indoors. I spray before hand a few days, and have been known to use a praying mantis or two to handle any bugs. But, as you say, that may not be the case for everyone. A clean environment is the key. Keep your grow area clean, clean, clean.
