Stush2019 said:I would go to my local hardware store and purchase a spray bottle of house plant insecticide. Take the plant outside (on a warm day) and give it a good spraying. You could put it in the bathtub and spray it there. Some dish soap (the plain kind with no sanitizers in it) one table spoon to a gallon of water to water it in the future might help. Also try 'Gardens Alive' if you can wait a while. They have all sorts of products to deal with any kind of invasion.
Good luck,
Stush


Where would I spray? Since they are in the bottom of the pot would it be helpful to spray the leaves? Or would I take the plastic pot off and spray the roots? What's your take on the "It's centipedes and they are ok" comment? If it was just 1 or two I wouldn't be worrying but there were/are tons!
Thanks!!
