Help please I’m panicking
#Peperomia I noticed those little insects in the pot of my raindrop peperomia. Does anyone know what they are? Springtails? Mites? I was so proud of Pippi😭 #help

@DreamMachine Thank you so much for your reply. Yes, they run very fast and I think I can clearly see their little legs. As soon as they get close to the surface they go back down and never come out.
They’re probably springtails, which aren’t a problem. They’re in a lot of soil and then help keep everything clean by eating all the mold. Assuming they’re springtails, they won’t get out of control because the more of them there are, the less mold is available for them to eat, so it all balances out. Don’t take my word for it though! Good luck
