| today when watering one of my hanging plants I found a leaf that at first glance appeared to be fuzzy with a white mold, but as I picked the leaf off one piece of "mold" landed on my arm and appeared to be a worm like creature thin as a piece of hair, but maybe less than 1/4" long. They were white and it looked like the head could have been black and it moved like an inchworm. any ideas what this might be? |

| Maybe it is AN inch worm.. I had big catapillars on mine... then tiny tiny ones like you describe.. and while looking for more ... I ran nose to nose with a gigantic grasshopper 6 floors up on the roof... I get every pest there ... except for the deer...and rabbits... they don't climb the fire escape real well ...Gordon |

| I don't think that was what it was... it was MUCH thinner than any inchworm I have ever seen... but you never know... we definately have an abundance of bettles and grasshopper and massive spiders... oh well... hehe |
