Symphyla
I find symphyla all the time in my plants, but I feel like they're probably not a serious pest, and maybe even beneficial when they break down rotting vegetation in the soil. What are your thoughts?

Hi,these will eat your plants roots and do a lot of damage to plants so i would get rid of them if i was you.

Re: Symphyla
I doubt they'd be a problem for cacti, they can't take drying out. When soil is constantly warm and moist, as in irrigated land, they can build up to damaging numbers.
