I was gifted a lime tree before Christmas and it has brought a few varieties of pests home with it. So far I’ve had to deal with spider mites and pretty bad scale infestation. Yesterday I spent a while scraping the scale off while rinsing it in the shower to deal with the spider mites. Today, with the soil still very wet from the shower, I noticed the soil is full of centipedes. I’ve read mixed things online, do I want to keep or get rid of the centipedes? Are they good for killing scale and fungas gnats? They gross me out but they can stay if they’re serving a purpose…
