HELP! Minute little white bugs in my potted plants...

[heirloom gardener]

Hi--
I have teeny tiny little white bugs in my soil. I can only see them when I water and they just wiggle around and go back into the soil. These are treasured potted houseplants! I can't seem to figure out what kind of bugs these are...Does anyone out there know what these are or how to get rid of them? Thanks again-- Bobbie

I would not assume you need to get rid of them. If there is no damage to the roots or the plants, they might just be feeding on organic matter in the soil.
