The White Dot Situation


My sister pointed out that I never followed up on the white fuzz - after rolling the compost, I have not seen the white fuzz! However, not too long after the white fuzz incident, there was the Tiny White Dots Situation - - I opened up the compost to switch lids to roll it and there were strange tiny white dots all over the inside of the plastic bucket (see the above picture). I wasn't sure what it was then (and I'm still not sure what it is) my first two thoughts were: 1) tiny dots of mold and 2) insect larvae of some type.

Nothing has hatched... so I'm pretty sure it's not larvae. The last time I opened the lid to roll the compost, the dots were still there, but they didn't seem as... intense, for lack of a better word. However, I wouldn't not call the White Dot Situation resolved.
