I’ve had this golden pothos for about a year now, and I was just looking at the new growth when I noticed some small black ant-like bug bugs on the vines. they look like just normal ants, but I also had some sort of an infestation on my Money tree about a week ago that I treated with peroxide, though it still has some and is being quarantined. what are they? Should I be worried for my Pothos and my Money tree? And how do I get rid of them?
I water my Pothos every seven days and it gets a lot of afternoon sun. Sadly, my Money tree was on the same side as my Pothos.

Either ants of fungus gnats
Oh i dont love that for you. I’d say replace dirt, hit eith neem, do not place outside. Its ant season so im wondering if a nest has moved into ur house.
Sounds like the infestation moved to this guy. Not really seeing any damage that is indicative of thrips but i could be wrong or just not seeing something.
I’d probably repot, clean the roots, change out the soil & give the entire plant a bath. Could even take it and dunk it in the tub a bit if you want.
Maybe aphids? If so, sevin spray works well.
