Hi friends,
Search function appears to be wonky so I'm sorry if this is a FAQ.
Our redfoot is in a PVC enclosure with a dirt, coco coir, and forest floor substrate. Her temps and humidity are all in range. But a few weeks ago I bought a couple small plants for her to destroy. I washed them very thoroughly, but one of them had to have been carrying passengers because these tiny white bugs have taken over the enclosure. I think they're aphids but I'm not sure. They look like little white specks, I wouldn't even clock them as bugs if they didn't move.
I've tried wiping down any surfaces I spot them on but they just keep coming back.
I'm concerned that they're bothering her - she's not showing any signs of stress or ill health, but I'm worried that won't continue to be the case if I can't get them taken care of.
Any advice appreciated, thank you!
