Something eaten inside a p-bulb... what should I do now?

[RosieC]

My Onc Sharry Baby is being eaten!

Somethine has burrowed inside a p-bulb and started hollowing it out. I think the lower half of the bulb is hollow while the top half still feels firm.

What should I do now?

I'm not sure if whatever it is is still in there. I was thinking of tipping the plant on it's side and pouring in rain water to try and get it to crawl out. Is this a good idea?

Also what then, when I'm sure the critter is out, should I put cinnamon in the hole, or do I need to completely remove the p-bulb, or do I just leave it



The good thing is that while this is one of the new p-bulbs there are two more new p-bulbs and five lead growths of various sizes. This Onc is also iminently going to flower and is growing the buds on a big spike.
