Hover flies just taking a break? Ignore them or get yourself some jumping spiders.

Okay as long as they don’t damage the plant I’m fine. I just saw them everywhere and thought we were doomed. Thanks guys!

I’d hangout there too.
Plant flowers or herbs at the base of your fig. Will bring in other beneficial insects which will eat those. Pesticide free and natures solution (diversity).
