Nice video. What about the past that live in the ground and come out of the dirt in the pot to feed on the leaves? For example, pincher bugs, or some spiders?
Healthy soil has many living organisms along with the possibility of overwintering insects. While some may be considered pests, we recommend a wait-and-see approach to dealing with any insect pests that do emerge. Treating the soil without knowing if you even have overwintering insect pests is not recommended and would likely be harmful to the beneficial life in the soil. Best practices are to inspect plants and remove insects from your plant leaves before bringing them inside. Once indoors, manage with the most benign treatment option if and when you have an issue that needs attention.
Excellent although you did not mention pests in the soil. There will be pests in the soil if you do not treat. Outdoors has a plethora of strange insects that will emerge inside your home.

Another question I have is what do you do if you can’t afford grow lights to mimic amount of light they get outdoors indoors? I only have one room that gets a lot of light, but even that isn’t nowhere near what they get outdoors. Should I even bother trying to bring them in?
If you live in a climate where your plants can survive outside all year, keep them outside. If your plants will not survive the winter months, the next best option is to find a location inside. Many plants can handle non-direct sunlight through the winter months indoors until you can bring them outside again in spring. A great resource to help with specific plant questions is your local university horticulture extension office.
Healthy soil has many living organisms, including the possibility of pests. As a gardener, we have to decide what we are comfortable with in our homes and yards. If you are concerned about pests in the soil when outside, you may want to keep your potted plants inside.
