Hello.

I need some ID(entifications).

http://imgur.com/a/yEFQJ/all -- Outdoor on the storage cabinets'
corners. They look like tiny orange aphids (tinier than Argentine worker
ants that were crawling around and not caring about them) and trying to
head North East (NE)? They moved very slow and easy to blow them away
with my breath. Where the heck did they come from? The trees next to
them? I didn't see any on the leaves, branches, stems, etc.

http://imgur.com/a/3aTPD/all -- An indoor plant's moist soil had these
tiny white beetles(?) crawling around slowly. Are these pests? Related
to gnat swarms that were seen flying around near the indoor windows the
last few days?

These photo(graph)s were taken from a Samsung Galaxy S6 edge
smartphone's camera so the qualities aren't great for these super tiny
insects.

Thank you in advance. :)
