Q.Worm infestation in potted plants

Zone Brisbane | Anonymous added on February 8, 2020 | Answered

There has been a huge infestation of these worms in two agapanthus pots that I have. I was wondering if there was any spray or pesticide I can use to get rid of them. I’ve included a photo of a dead one.

Is it feeding on the leaves of your plants? If so, you might try Bt, which is an organic pest control. I've included an article with other options as well.
