PEST ID PLEASE!
 
Hello everyone,

Anybody know what these little guys are? They live in the soil and come out when i water. They look like ticks, which they obviously are not! The pictures I took are from dead specimens, hope they are enough for an ID.

Here they are:

Look forward to your comments.

Thanks,

Pananep

i dont know what is it but i guess it can hurt your plant since the insect looks like it can bite off roots and rootstocks.
keep on top watering so it comes out :)

or use neem oil.dilute it,and spray some in the soil.


Hope all goes well!
