Is this due to root rot? Temps? Or something else? Leaves have been curling down due a few weeks, and now they are starting to droop and dieback quickly over the last few days. There is some new growth still though. Do I need to uproot it and check / cut roots?

    As far as I know they don’t spread fungi, but the adults feed on it- they like moist soil for that reason. I have found short-term success with a combo of liberal use of Neem oil, sprinkling cinnamon in soil to control any fungus, and putting out water/soap/apple cider vinegar dishes near the affected plants (picked all the bis up from articles online). I don’t know if this will translate into long-term control though!
