I have tried to go out and check at night, but have not seen much. I have seen the actual insects three times, but the bugs look much much smaller than the earwigs I am used to seeing. They also go backwards? Which I thought was odd.

I thought about spider mites, but the webbing is only at the very base of the plant, and does not extend up.

I have tried rubbing the little black things in between my fingers and they are dry. They really feel like seeds, but could very well be droppings. There were many more bits of Web and such before I thinned out my once giant plant. Sad

I sprayed some insecticide on the webbing again today, so maybe that will help. Sad

Thank you for the responses!!
