Title: tiny white worms
Post by: Grubbypaws on July 26, 2011, 13:44

Having noticed some holes appearing in the leaves of my peppers I had a really good explore and found some minature white worm like creatures.

Any one any ideas? should I worry?

Are they leaf miners?

No I dont think so. The leaves simply have holes in them and the tiny white worms (like miniature wriggling leeches) were on the inside of the black container.

They may be baby earthworms and nothing to do with the holes.
