So a couple of days ago i discovered about 5 holes in my plant with brown stuff comin out of it. I started goin through this forum to know what was causin it and what the solution was.
Turned out it were stem borin larvae and people just cut open the stem/branches and took it out. Now i didn't want to make these big cuts in my plant so i tried another way. And it worked! Just i thought i should share this with you![Wink ;-) ;-)](/styles/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
I took a string from an electric guitar cuz its made out of one string wrapped around another and from the one on the outside i could make like a small fishhook. I just cleared the entrance of the hole, poked the string as deep as i could and pulled the larvae out. 4 out of 5 came out, so thats 80% less cuts i have to make! It was very easy to do so you dont really need a guitar string i guess, but it looked like one of the easiest strings to do this.
Hope this helps some of you out![Peace :peace: :peace:](/styles/smilies/peace.gif)
