Hi everyone, I recently started growing my own avocado at home (indoors, in an apartment ). One of the seeds started sprouting, but I noticed very small insects swimming in the water and going back to the seed in question. On the picture you can see a small black dot on the water on the left side of the seed, that's the insect in question. And I have spotted 3 of them. Again this is my first time growing avocado. I do not know if it is supposed to be there or not. I read about bugs appearing after potting the avocado, but didn't read anything about bugs at this early stage. I would appreciate some advices on what to do about it. Is it normal or not? If not , how to treat it? I have other plants in the apartment. Is this an infection somehow that could spread to other plants? Overall, I just hate insects and hate the idea of having them in the same area I sleep and eat, so help please. And I want to keep growing a healthy avocado tree.
It might be a fruit fly that fell into the water and is going back to the seed to try getting out. It's not likely to be an aquatic insect nor to bother the avocado seedling.
