hell yeah…the paper wasps have started to show some interest in my plants, hopefully they eat up some baddies…been finding more and more pirate bugs on all plants, some seem to be nesting in the new leaf shoots…have also been seeing a lot of hoverflies/tachnid flies around ..i heard they are also predatorsLast year I had quite a few mantis living on my plants. Haven't seen any yet this year. Definitely have some spider friends lurking though.
hahaha it’s looking at you like you’re disrupting it’s meal…that’s a dope shot!!
yeah they are alien looking in a way…that’s awesome, maybe i’ll order some praying mantis eggsI definitely got lucky. They way it turned it's head at me like "excuse me"...it was actually a little creepy.
I saw another one catch and devour a bee last year too. Felt bad for the bee, but nature is going to nature. They are really excellent hunters.
This is why lots of mulch is my friend outdoors! View attachment 5408153
