I have never seen anything like this before. I was doing a flush on my Monstera. Watching and waiting for the water to subside, all of a sudden, I saw these little worm creatures crawling up the side of the planter. I have tried to identify them with a bug app and got seven or eight different answers. Google is no help. I was wondering if any of you had come across these things before.

    Baby centipedes. They eat the buggies in your soil. 😊

    Those look like soil centipedes (family geophilidae). They're probably adults; those species tend to stay pretty small
