i have found this whole in one of the flower pots, about 7-8 cm. the soil is dug out. i live in a flat at the 2nd floor. how did it get in and what can it be, please help, im terrified!!!
Please HELP, i have found a whole in a flower pot...?
I would be scratching my head and feeling a little bit uncomfortable myself. By chance do any others live in your apartment, or has anyone visited recently? Is it possible someone stuck a finger down in the soil to check for watering needs? Maybe even someone goofing around with you..
Maybe you left a window open, or a door ajar. If there was a stray cat living in the apartment complex and wandered into your flat, it would head to the pot of dirt. Have you noticed any strong odors around the pot? Could even be a mouse or small rodent, especially if there were seeds or seedlings present in the pot.
If you recently transplanted a plant, maybe there was an airpocket
that settled out during a watering; would look just like a tunnel. There probably wouldn't be a little pile of soil if this was the case. Finally, if the potted soil has been outside before, or even if the soil was brought in (by spade or commerical bag) it could have contained a worm maybe. Night crawlers get to be a pretty good size, and maybe it just decided to escape from its confines.
I wouldn't worry too much though, if it's a small hole, then only a small creature could have made it. Doubt it would pose much of a threat or danger to you.
It would probably just bug the heck out of me trying to figure the logic of it all.
Good luck

Reply:I'm sorry, I think you mean you have found a hole in a flower pot. But so what? There are worse things in life than this.
Reply:Perhaps the plant was blown out or a cat disturbed it.
By the way, in this case, hole has no w.
Reply:A whole what? and can you eat it?
Reply:the way i've worked this out,you have found a depression in the soil of your flower pot,you dont say if this has caused plant damage,so i think it's the cause that is disturbing.You say no child or cat,could it be a rat ,these are known to disturb soil,or rough watering could disturb the soil.be watchful,i'm sure you will get to the cause,then work out a remedy.
Reply:oh no! it's the end of the world!!!!!!!
