I've been treating for fungus gnats the last week so the soil has been relatively moist, but this was the last thing I expected!

I thought it was a rabbit at first.

I loaded the post up again and actually thought there was a rabbit invading my photo 😂

I get those occasionally when it's super humid in the house and the plants are drying out much slower than usual lol. I feel bad plucking them out, so I just let them be until they die off and then bury them in the pot 😂

Yeah it's been pretty moist with me treating the soil everyday with hydrogen peroxide to make sure the gnats don't reproduce, at least I know the soil is nutrient rich 😂
