Hello! So I have a problem. I ordered a baby cephalotus from this site, and it came in its usual cup with its usual medium. Months later (today) I notice that in the cup, after it has turned green on top, theres WORMS! AND LITTLE MITES! They are white worms. Now I have looked around online, and learned to get rid of them, I must mix hydrogen peroxide with some regular water, then water the plant. (After starving it for a couple days) They said that will kill all the nasty bugs in the medium.
However, I was wondering if you guys have any advice to give me, or any better, safe ways to get rid of the worms and gnats in my poor cephalotus cup.
Thanks again guys! Have a great day
P.S. Where do they come from, and also how can I prevent them from attacking my other plants??
