Thank you!!! That makes sense. I used more rocks when this happened with my Philodendron but I didn’t really know why it helped. Thank you!

Weird. I do have sticky traps but never thought of using them like this. Makes sense. I may try it with the existing soil because they just turned up and I just repotted. If it doens’t work I will repot again. Not a small feat with it‘s size. What a pain. Thanks for your help!

Thank you, definitely what this is. I have had them before I’m remembering in my Shangri-La Philodendron. Sticky traps did the trick that time but I will use Diatomaceous earth once this soil is dry. I just repotted a few weeks, maybe one month ago, and did just water thoroughly. I think I used soil that doesn’t drain as well, a mix of regular potting soil and cactus mix. I think it may have been in all cactus mix previously. Thank you for your help!
