My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Help me identify this soil pest

17 years ago

I find a lot of these tiny pests in my potting soil. They are very small, about 2mm long. When I lift my pots up, I can see them crawling on floor, too. They are very active.

I got one of them and put it on black background then used my camera with macro lens to take a picture of it.

Thanks
