i have a brand new worm compost bin, the one where they can travel up and down the tiers, and a spout for the tea.
well ive only had it for a couple of weeks, coco coir as bedding.
been feeding it only shredded paper, leaf material, some crushed egg, and i sprinkled in some pond zyme ( a natural enzymatic cleaner, it does not do shit, but i put it in there figuring it would not hurt)

the reason i am describing this is because it is indoors, so i dont undertstand wtf is crawling all over. there are thousands of these little white bug ,i mean really tiny, and they are crawling all over the fucking place.
at first i thought they were worm babies, but i googled worm babies, and they look nothing like worm babies.

the only lead i got is beetle mites, and from the description i read it seems like it is ok for them to be there,

but i need to know WTF they are, someone please

this is the pond zyme product i put in, i read the the description again, i dont think this had anything to do with it. It is bacterial spores ( that break down organic material) and barley

why do i have this you ask?, well on another forum i read that pond enzymes are the same shit that nutrient companies sell us but hundred times more concentrated. so i bought it to test it out, and placed a generous amount in a cup of water with roots, and nothing happened for a long time, it smelled like shit. Roots still there tho.

Sounds similar to my worm farm. I had a problem with soldier fly larvae, there were thousands of the bastards, although yours sound too small for them, it could be some kind of larvae attracted to rotting food.
The only way I could get rid of them was to stop putting food in there, I put only 1 banana a week for a month.
You can also try fly spray, if it's quite light the worms will dig for cover as they dont like the light, and then spray.
Also try stopping the pond stuff.
Hope this helps, do you have any pics.

hey, just read your post...i had a problem with these little fuckers a while ago, incedentally not on a cannabis plant, it was a mimosa plant, but either way, id reccomend you try and get rid of them. they dont really seem to do much harm at first, but my plant just went really brown and died a month later. Fly or insect spray would probably be a good idea, but obviously you have to be cautious when it comes to pest control. try find stuff that youd use on veg or other edible (or smokable!) plants, to avoid contaminating your crop. i hope they go away anyway!!!

oh, and im pretty sure theyre beetle mites, thats what was crawling all over my mimosa

so now i have questions based on the responses, thanks by the way

if i can only put a little bit of food in there, this is basically a waste because i got this thing so that they can dispose of the leaf material of the cannabia plant.

and two if they are beetle mites, the description i read seemed beneficial, do they really harm the plants.

I have read the marijuana is toxic to earthworms.
While the mites sound benificial I still wouldn't want them in my worm farm.
Have you tried asking the people you bought the worms from, I took pics of mine and emailed them to the seller and they were most helpful.

OK, maybe it isn't toxic, someone posted it here once that's all, so I've never tried it.

Holmes..... Fret Not..... Smoke a bowl, put on some Pink Floyd & browse this website..... http://urbanext.illinois.edu/worms/
.
To get rid of them, cut up an apple into 1/8 inch thick slices, drop a few of them on the surface of your worm bedding..... within an hour..... most all the little suckers will be on the apple slices... toss the slices in the trash...... problem pretty much handled..... repeat as needed......
.
Little critters like these are just part of worm farming....... the link I gave you is not meant to be an insult.... I like cartoon characters teaching me shit, when I've seriously blazed..... the info is dead on solid and easy to follow..... even with short term memory issues like mine.... (usually caused after bowl number 4 of some AK-47)..... LOL......
.
Hope this helps..... (if you don't have any PF.... Kotton Mouth Kings....will work also)

Keep it Real.....Organic....
