ladybug invasion begins...(article)
population crash. there was a thriving aphid population that wasnt being dented well
by our little red LB and the new LB went to town. I dont see "honey" or ants on my peonies anymore, I guess the aphids are just background now. so without their prime source of food the new LB crashed too.

I found a couple inside my son's mouth ( I guess he was REALLY hungry or something because I thought they were supposed to taste bad. LOL), but really I am quite pleased as I have had no problems so far this season. When I open my screen door there are maybe ten of them huddled together within the casing but they are inactive. What could have happened? I don't know if these things are related or not but my trees did not turn red this year either. Most of the leaves (maple) are a greeny-yellow at best and most are still in tact..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List Manager: Puregold Goldfish List at http://weloveteaching.com/puregold/ sign up: http://list.lovemyoldhome.com/web/wa.cgi?REPORT&z=3 www.drsolo.com Solve the problem, dont waste energy finding who's to blame ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I receive no money, gifts, discounts or other compensation for all the damn work I do, nor for any of the recommendations I make.
