I have a problem with these little worm like things. They appear to feed on the roots of palms to a small extent, they particularly target banana tubers on inspection of a sick banana plant's tuber I find it mushy and riddled with tiny worm/caterpillar type insects. Does anyone know what these are and how to stop the blighters. They are only a few millimetres long.
