They look like they are living in the soil if thats the case you can add a layer of sand to the top to keep them from digging and keep the larva already in the soil from being able to survive. Add some fly strips too if you want, I imagine that should work.

diatamaceous (spelling?) earth could help as well.  They just kinda look like sow bugs to me. 


One thing you can do to just solve the problem all together is let them get big enough to clone, clone and throw the old ones out.  I know it will set you back a little bit but it would take care of the problem.

I dont understand, could you be more specific to what should i need to let get big enough to clone, then through out?

also are these things harmful to the plant?

I also did some research on these sow bugs and apparently:

"In greenhouses and southern states, large populations can eat and damage plants."

If they are living in the soil does that run rist of them eating the roots??

Well if you don't even know about cloning your going to need to do a little bit of research on cloning my friend.  It's not hard.

I'd let that plant get 2-3 inches taller and then clone it.

I don't know enough about sow bugs to answer that question.  i have never had a problem with them.
