My apprentice was sitting by the coop catching lantern flies and putting them in the coop. The juvenile lantern flies get eaten right up. The adult lantern flies get tossed about till the wings come off then they eat the body. The praying mantis only leave the wings and just eat the body. I put...

I keep looking but have failed to see any eggs sacks. My number are really down this year they seem to have gone elsewhere. last year where there would be a line of adults there are one or two. I find at night after the nightly inspection of quail coop they don't move if you shine a light at...

This year I am just trying the vacuum. going to pick up a new tip tonight using a clear hose to get them. Last year they just went away in September. They were still about the grapes but when the...
