can't help you with that, we have just discovered whitefly on our lettuces, and I've read they are the very devil to eradicate. Good luck in finding a remedy for your problem.

I don't know what the yellow insects are, but I find that by having a good air flow through my green house, helps a lot.
Some insects like a humid atmosphere. I'm not an expert, though.
If you don't mind spraying have a look at Yates 'Success'

3 sprays of pyrethrum based spray 3 days apart. Make sure you spray the plants late afternoon as the sun will cause scorching on the plants and follow the 3 spray 3 day rule.

I have a glasshouse as well and this year my new seedling leaves are being attacked. Something is chewing at the leaves. Would an earwig do that? Also outside in the garden I planted silver beet and some peas. A leaf miner has been burrowing into the leaves. I have covered the silver beet with plastic like a cloche to protect them and will have to hand water them. Any other ideas people.
