larvae attached to the lantana leaves, I removed the whole leaf rather than try to remove the larvae |
I placed the cut off leaves with larvae attached on or near the most heavily infested plants in the garden, the plan is that they will begin to hunt the aphids and other soft bodied pests that have been increasing in numbers lately. I'm also going to get some lantana and flowers in the ground to try and keep the lady bug colony thriving.
a few juveniles and many larvae |
Example of some lantana leaves placed on the red romaine lettuce. |
