Well I brought some plants two weeks back on my little ones request and my mums is got attacked by worms. I was notifying it's appearance since two days that it's kind of losing its health and when I inspected it and flipped the leaves the tiny worms were their. Any remedies for these worms?how to save my plant?

Spray them with a mix of water with a little dish soap, it usually works.

@Letranknight2015 You can also use cornmeal, the worms love to eat the cornmeal, but they cannot digest it, they continue to eat and kill themselves.

Yes, Alfredo, I told about the soap and water and also the cornmeal, the worms loves to eat the cornmeal but they die because they eat too much.

If you have some woodash that helps. Ofcourse there are pesticides but I normally do not encourage their use.

I've never had worms on my mums before. Maybe they came with the plant and the place you bought them would exchange the plant for you? If you buy any more plants you may want to check the leaves out first to make sure. If they won't exchange the plant for you, maybe they know what to do about the worms. We have a store near us where we can take the plant or the worms in a baggy and they could tell us what the insect is, were it came from and how to get rid of it. But the store we have is the only one of it's kind even in our area.
