Stowaway in the greenhouse
« on: November 08, 2006, 11:38:46 PM »
I was wondering why there were fewer bugs in the greenhouse this year.  Then I spied this little guy.  At first I thought he was the only one but a week later I saw another one a bit larger. :)

Tootsie - Did it move out or did it make its way south for the winter? If it stayed and is in a warm area where it feels safe you have a great opportunity for photos.

Do they actually eat stuff in your greenhouse??? I know they eat mosquitoes and larger insects in mine (I have a very large resident population of green tree frogs...they breed in my bromeliads) but they don't eat stuff I want them to eat like mealybugs and scale. My USDA plant inspector who used to come when I operated my nursery said it was because mealies and scale don;t move, so they don't attract the frog's attention.

Frogs, spiders, lady bugs and praying mantis....are all welcome and sometimes relocated to my gh (8:-) (8:-)......I have a writing spider right now in one of my corners with 3 egg sacs  @O@.....and the dragon fly larvae continue to hatch all thru the winter......it is so neat to go out in the winter and still have green plants and a load of good insects and frogs.....I also keep shubbies in my 4x8 pond in the gh....so I get to enjoy the hobby all year long  @O@ @O@ @O@
