help! parasites!

[Christianb96]

was checking on my 2 millipedes tonight and saw what appears to be nematoads on some leaf litter, then found more in some condensation on the container. i kmow they must have came from the leaf litter, as they are present with my isopods that received the same leaf litter. i dont know alot about them. will they harm my pedes? what can i do about it at this point? thank you in advance

I don't know very much about nematodes, but I do know there are many different kinds. I found some with my Gordos and took all the millipedes and babies out and baked the soil. I completely changed it out! I am pretty sure most nematodes would be harmless but I didn't want to take a chance. Let us know how it goes for you.
