Picking tomatoes this weekend, and found these creepy things. Apparently the wasps lay their larva on tomato horn worms. Then the larva feed off the horn worm until they hatch. I'm glad to see dead horn worms, but this kinda wierd, Aliens type stuff.

I will see if I can get Fauci on this while he’s still in charge of this genetic stuff…

Asian beetles, japanese beetles, stink bugs and box elder beetles. Would be nice to have something to eat those.

One year the paper wasps in my hot bed
seemed "tame" and I did not kill them.
My aphid and ant problem ended.

I have yellow jackets "wasps" now and do not know where.
Hoping we leave each other alone lol.

some limited success in chickens , the pheromone traps with a piece of PVC to send the insect down into food pan , they are still moving when they hit the pan so the chicken is more likely to eat them.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
