House plant infestations
Hello
My friend has recently been plagued by insect infestations in her house plants. Many of them are producing small flies, a rose had what looked to be spider mixed and then this evening she has sent my the attached photo, which looks like eggs in the soil of her Devil's Ivy.
I have recommended that she repot her plants, using fresh soil which she has done to all except the Devil's Ivy. I've also recommended that she only water once every 2 weeks but I'm not sure if I'm giving her rubbish advice!
Can anyone advise as to the best course of action and perhaps identify if these are eggs?
Thank you
