Help identify a Pest please

I've got some young spinach beet in an indoor container. The leaves are being nibbled at by some very small grub or worm things. They are about 4mm long and 1mm wide (or less).

Toadstools?

Newbie from South Yorks

Hi all. I'm new to growing. In fact in the past I've been much better at neglecting and killing. I'm planning to try my hand at a few simple herbs and vegetables this year. I've gotta start quick too from what I've read. Thought I might ask for a little help to start here. I was looking to clear spa...
