White bugs on roots
Default White bugs on roots
Hey guys. I just noticed tiny white bugs on the roots of my cattalya and cymbidium. They are on the moss too. The pots have been recently watered and won’t be ready to water for several more days. Questions:

1.) what are the bugs? Are they fungus gnat larvae? Are they normal?

2.) is there a big problem with me leaving the bugs alone until the plant is ready to be watered again in several days, or should I treat immediately.

3.) I have water with mosquito dunk dissolved in it. Will this be effective or do I need some insecticidal soap or miticide or something?
