Friendly Bugs

Green Lacewings are laying their eggs right now. You might have seen their strings of egg towers on leaves or stems in your yard. The lacewing larvae prey on aphids and other soft-bodied insects and will work hard in your garden to rid it of pests like whiteflies, thrips, mealybugs, mites, small caterpillars, leafhoppers and moth eggs. Lacewing larvae can eat up to 60 aphids an hour. friendly
