Peace Lily w/ little bugs.

Hello everyone, I have a small problem I don't know how to take of. I've had this peace lily for almost 2 years and when it was given to me it had pretty white flower like blooms on it. Then they soon faded and I have never seen them again but the foilage stayed pretty and very green, healthy. Today I noticed the leaves are being eaten on and there small black bugs that look similar to magets. what are they and how can I take care of this problem?

Illinois, try the House Plant Forum. They would probably have a better handle on what's eating your peace lily.

RE: Peace Lily w/ little bugs.

Is this different than what you posted in the houseplant forum, illinois? There, you mentioned nothing about anything eating the leaves, and you had identified rolly-pollies as a soil-borne pest. So what's the situation?
