eeek!
there was a plethora of dragonflies hanging aroudn my pond yesterday &
today.. the 1st time in 'ever' seeing them here.

ok, how do I get rid of them & should I be reallly scared???

(I have read about the larva/nymphs eating goldfish,, although I cannot see
how something THAT small could do that!)


Don't get rid of them and don't be scared, they are way cool. They eat other
bugs like mosquitoes. Nymphs do eat very, very young goldfish - something
less than a quarter of an inch I'd say.
