Organic pest control for thread like insects.?
I have 3 house plants and have noticed miniscule (about 1mm long) white thread like insects in the trays under them. They seem to jump around a bit… they may be a kind of larvae.
Anyway, I’d like my plants to be organic but I don’t want these pests to damage my plants.
Can anyone tell me what to do? Thanks
Thanks old know all… I tried to wash the roots and then re-pot them but it didn’t seem to work. I’ll try submerging them in water for a while but what do you mean by ‘root-ball’? Sorry I don’t know much about plants!
Hedge Witch… Couldn’t find any waxy creatures but will keep a look out. Thanks!
