Tiny things everywhere. What gets rid of them?

Likely some type of army worm, which is a caterpillar. Most common insecticides will take care of them, Sevin, bifen, etc. Just spray in the evening/early night and be sure to get the undersides of the leaves. Get them soon because they work quickly.
ETA: Could be sawfly larvae, too, but if they're in big numbers they're probably army worms. Same treatment for either one.

If it is armyworms, take care of this ASAP.
They can DESTROY huge sections of lawns overnight if they have the numbers - ask me how I know.
