Hello I have just noticed a small worm on my alata. Is it harmful?
If so what can I use to keep pests away. I have had to get rid of some slugs and now this little guyImage. It is in a greenhouse already

I'm no pest expert, but I wouldn't want any worms on any of my plants, except for inside the traps. I would pick it off and sentence it to death via nepenthes pitcher. Then check the rest of the plant for more of the little buggers.
