Tiny eggs on greenhouse compost

Hello, I found a cluster of several hundered tiny spherical small brown/reddish/orange eggs on the soil surface of a pot which has a tomato seedling in it. There are no eggs on the plant. Just clustered on the soil. I will get a picture shorty. Any ideas what this could be? Thanks, Rob.

    A picture would really help. Can you see them with your eyes? There are not many pest eggs that humans cans see.

    yes you have to do it on the computer, it won't allow photos from mobiles, very annoying.

    Phew!! Thanks Edd! I just looked on Google images and that is exactly it. I was so worried I was going to lose all my stock and with my uni exams coming up I don't have time to spend resowing, potting up etc.

    Do you think they came in on the biodegradable pots? image
