They seem to have gone, though, which is good. Like these: http://tinyurl.com/pq24fxa ? In which case they're ladybird larvae. They are aggressive predators of greenfly and other aphids and are probably doing you a favour by eating whatever the other things are, so don't get rid of them, although some 'collateral damage' may be inevitable. Actually: No. Smoother than those. If they are there again tomorrow, I'll take a picture. There is one in the photo I posted, but you can't see any detail at all. I think I'll need to go to macro on the camera. -- Davey. |
