Chewing Critters
I am in middle TN where the drought is severe. We just had 3 weeks of 99
to 106 F temps. If I see another one on my plants I will bring them back indoors. One of the Phal's nice new leaves has a quarter size hole chewed in it. This insect chewed right through the Den' flower stalk, leaving the flowers and buds laying there on the floor. I could have cried. I spelled the name of the critter incorrectly: it's *Lubber*. I have heard people here in FL talk about hitting them with boards to kill the beasts. When I have seen them it's generally one, not many. Here's a link: http://creatures.ifas.ufl.edu/orn/lubber.htm Diana |
