Are these fungus gnat larvae??? Or something else? I have these guys falling out the bottom of my corn plant and my anthuriums. How do I get rid of them? Thanks for the advice! đ

ShirleyđŞ´you jestI have also found only one or two in my plant saucers, but with lots of finely ground soil. I was told the soil was worm castings and not knowing any better, I assumed that was the type of worm creating that lovely fertilizer.

ExperimentalIâve found those coming out the bottom of my heart leaf brasil. There were also live centipedes. I sprayed with Neem oil and that seemed to work.

Oh dang, I havenât seen any live ones. Maybe they are all buried. I tried dish soap in the water but didnât seem to do the trick.

I wonder it was in the soil already. Wouldnât be unheard of. Especially if the came from the same place. Or if a pest came in and layer some eggs. I donât know but it has to go! đ

No idea where they came from but it was only in one plantâŚnow they spread to another plant across the room. The plant seems healthy tho? I just donât want it to spread more. Can you treat a plant the same for all pests? Like soapy water or neem?

Does anyone think that is what is creating the fine granular soil under some pots? Or something else? I found one deceased worm like the one in Avalonâs photo months ago. I was told they are worm castings, but have not seen any earthworms⌠Looking for certain confirmation regarding what is creating this please. Thank you đŞ´
