    Thrips!!! Keep it away from any plants, give it a really good shower down, isolate and treat with pesticide

      THANK YOU! I’ve put it in the shower and sprayed with lots of pesticide.

      Would you suggest I repot too?

      No problem! Good! Hopefully it pulls through, probably do a shower everyday (not the soil just the leaves and stems so it doesn’t rot) and then treat weekly with pesticide for a good month, thrips are so hard to get rid of

      Yes! If you can, that’ll definitely get rid of most of the eggs and larva in the soil, make sure to rinse off the roots really well too
