I got this triostar stromanthe as a rehab plant in pretty rough shape, got her to a good place, and then recently moved and she’s been unhappy since. I thought it was due to the move but then I saw these guys (second photo) swimming/crawling around the ā€œpebbleā€ tray and yesterday noticed the eggs from the first picture. I’m definitely going to quarantine her and wash her neighbors/keep a good eye on them, but does anyone know who those little pests are? šŸ™

She gets bright indirect light, I water her when her soil is almost dry, repotted her at the end of last summer, and need to top off her soil. I mixed her soil from compost, vermaculite, and some clay balls. I’m tempted to chop all of her leaves, wash her roots and the pot, and toss the soil, but obviously would love to know if I’m overreacting first. Thank you so much, plant doctors!
