That’s exactly what it is. Hopefully after a good wash and NEEM oil they’ll go away.
Have you delt with them in the past?

@FUKAZ28 Where ur in flower I wouldn’t use neem on them. Imparts a bad taste on the finished buds. Doesn’t wash off with a bud wash.
I’d go for some spinosad. Instead.
Capt jacks dead bug works and safer to use in flower.

It works in the garden outside so it should do the same on the inside I believe.

I would stick it in the refrigerator and spray them right before the lights go out so it does not cause damage to your leaves

You’ll also freeze the plants.
May want to keep them inside and treat them as old guy suggested.
It’s treatable.
Good luck

Im pretty sure those are thrips theyre super annoying to deal with they lay there eggs inside the plants not on the leaves so even when You think there gone BOOM EGGS HATCH and the problem starts again what ever you do for treatment you’re going to need to do it till the end of the grow then you have to go into infestation removal mode and do a deep clean of everything and ditch that soil and any open bags of soil you stored near the infestation if thats a fabric pot youll need to either throw it out or wash it with super hot water and spray it down with rubbing alcohol then after it dries to be certain put it in a plastic bag in the freezer for a couplof days

Its been outside all morning. I shook the plant at lunchtime and you could see all them flying. Very small critters for sure. Almost looked like dust particle’s in the air.

Edit:
Thanks for the help guys.

Look like whiteflies to me. I had a couple early on with my Granddaddy Purple grow fwhich just finished. I controlled my infestation by hanging a couple of large yellow sticky traps in the tent. They are attracted to the yellow color and get trapped by the sticky surface when they land. Worked like a charm. Never saw them again!

Just checked online and found this…
Yellow sticky traps capture aphids, leaf miner, fungus gnats, thrips, white flies, black flies, midges and other flying plant insects .

Don’t spray anything caustic that far into flower though, and you’ll want to thoroughly clean your grow after and make sure you kill them all. Check your houseplants as well.
