Why they have such a hard time with the worms/fungus? You'd think that, given their considerable knowledge of genetics, they'd be able to send out a steady stream of pathogens to cripple either or both. Or engineer a more benign form, or introduce congenital illness into the population by releasing retroviruses. Et cetera. As for the worms, they're a solid argument for an expanded robotic drone program. Dunno how their psionic abilities are supposed to work, but I don't imagine they do too much to a totally automated robot with a fumigator attached.
Yeah, I know, then it wouldn't be fun. Anybody bored enough to come up with an "in-universe" explanation for why simple solutions like those wouldn't work?
