Keep Ladybugs in Your Garden
When you go out to your garden to see what types of pests are hanging around you can rest easy when you start to see ladybugs. They are often released into a garden as a way of natural pest control. They are a great pest in a garden because they are considered a predator. This might not sound good but the term predator means that they are out to find other pests. They will not be found feeding in your precious garden but the pests that tend to cause harm and damage to it. They will eat the other pests that chew through the leaves, roots and produce that might be growing.
Aphid Midges Can Save Your Garden
The next pest that you can rest easy when you see them in your garden and around your plants is called an aphid midge. They are a small flying pest that can be found in a garden eating one of the most damaging pests you can find. The aphid midge will use a toxic saliva that will kill their enemy the aphid and then they will eat them. They are a great pest to see in the garden as long as they stay out of your house.
Aphids Are Bad
On the other hand you have aphids that are a huge problem and if they are left untreated they can destroy your garden and your plants. They are a tiny pest that go around chewing through leaves and produce and this will prevent the plant from growing. This can kill many plants and that is why you want to have your home and property treated for pests.
