Today I spotted that Yoda has some visitors...
Small, white visitors, in his soil.
Problem is, I'm not sure what they are!
I've been trying to look up mealybugs (which are bad news) vs springtails (which are harmless, and can actually help manage mould and decaying roots) but am struggling to identify them either way!
They look too small and fast to be mealybugs.
But their legs look a bit long to be springtails, and I haven't seen any jump...
Another source suggested fungus gnats (aka the little black flies, but before they're grown up), however I've researched them and before they mature they're larvae, not little creatures with legs.
Either way, my head feels itchy.
