Are you human?: Some times I wonder
Location: Arkansas USA
Neat thread here. Have any of you guys checked out the site called
Buglogical.com
They have a lot of bugs used for bad bug control. I use them. I buy nematodes for the
soft sided bugs in the soil. Also they cut down on the fleas and ticks
and the Mosquitoes also.
I bought green lacewings this year and I think they did not stay in the green
house long enough to do much good but now I am finding them all over the place.
I bought praying mantis and haven't seen very many of them. Spiders kill them
and that makes me mad.
I have trouble with spiders in the AP garden.

I found, questioned, waited, googled then knew! The moral to the story, you should always google first !

Anyway, I found these in my GB in the basil roots with lots of worms. Turns out they are worm eggs.

It's still moving/wriggling.. I guess it could be in the process of moulting.. or the sarah jessica parker version of a mozzie.. have got it in a measuring cup so will try to see what it turns into..

You just need "sharks with frickin' lasers" in your system Don ! They'll take care of the spiders for sure.

gorotsuki69 - it's probably a ichneumon wasp of some sort. They're a parasitic wasp which prey on various insects including a number of pests. They're generally considered a beneficial insect in the backyard
