For the first time in my life I'm in a quandary about this and need your help. If I spray the plants with insecticide I wont have any insects to photograph. On the other hand, if I don't spray, I wont have any flowers to photograph. Hmmm, maybe I will just spray half of them. What do you think.

Thanks, Dean

Dean, I use no pesticides. Feed the plants, they should out grow most pests damage. Also encourage the predators, that assassin bug should help as should the spiders.


Thanks, Jeff

Thank you Jeff, that is a good idea. Good thing those assasin bugs are beneficial, I've got a lot of them.

To bad you can't train them. Say, "OK all you Assassin Bugs, go get the Japanese beetles."


Thanks, Jeff
