hi other insectsforum,

Some of the leaves, which are laying on the ground of my Ocimum basilicum-plant were eaten by some insect(?)..
Looking closer, I found some little worms comming out of the ground..

I am wondering what kind of worms these are?
Does someone got an idea about them?

Greeting, Robert

owww.., I see Smile

That's why this plant refused growing any more.
I've never seen such Sciaridae-larvae comming to the surface.
They were very interested in the pit of my apple which I put in the ground(see picture).

Thank you for your comment,
greeting, Robert
