Do you also see flies? This could be a species in the Diapriidae family. Parasitic wasps that go after fly larvae and other young insects. I am not super confident in the ID though as I haven't really seen them before.

Hello, I’ve seen this pest come up a couple times, it is about 2mm in length. I think it resembles a tiny wasp but I’d appreciate a more confident ID on it!
