How Sweet It Is

"Beneficial?" Riiiiiight.

I've caught these things stripping the velamen from the roots of my Vandas (or flat-out eating the roots). Before I found out who the culprits were, I'd always be puzzled by the appearance of scars in the roots; it looked like someone had gone over the roots with a wood plane and shaved bits off. When I came home one day, I got to see the mischievous little culprits in action.
