I've recently put some tomato and pepper plants outside which I actually grew indoors from seed (for the first time.) Lately I've noticed little holes in some of the leaves of the tomato plants, a few peppers, and also my dahlias. I've seen a tiny fly in various parts of the yard near some of the plants. It has clear wings and won't stay still long enough, of course, to have a photo shoot. Could this fly be the culprit and, if so, is there anything I can dust or spray the plants with that will be safe? I'd like to attack the problem before it is too late.
