I keep hoping and hoping to find evidence of beneficial parasitic insects in my garden! I've seen Asian beetles eating potato beetle larvae, but never parasitic wasp eggs on the THC yet.

I'd like to see something go all postal parasitic on potato bugs....

I was shocked! I saw it first 2 years ago, wilting, drying up potato beetle larvae. Then I found squash bugs and Asian beetles preying on them. Oh, happy day! Saw it again last year.

Well, there ya go...I planted nasturtiums to keep the squash bugs off my squash when I should have planted the potatoes next to the squash for the same reason. But..do we want to feed the squash bugs and help them thrive? I don't know but I want them all to shrivel and die....
I can give you a great deal on some old DDT. Tried to get rid of it at HAZMAT day and even they wouldn't touch it!Beekissed said:Well, there ya go...I planted nasturtiums to keep the squash bugs off my squash when I should have planted the potatoes next to the squash for the same reason.
