Picked up a dropped avocado today and found some buggers crawling over some bruises. Checked the mulch and found a bunch of these tiny white bugs that I haven't seen before. Too small for my eyes, so I had to video them so I can zoom in on the monitor. Look like termites, but the ones that regularly swarm here are much bigger of course, and I've encountered bigger non-flyers on other occasions in dead trunks and scrap wood. Just never seen such tiny ones before. In the vid, a local black ant enters the frame for a bit, to give it some scale, and the ant is probably like 1/8" or so. This year, I tried some wood chip mulch since I don't see the Earthgro bark mulch in the box stores anymore around here
