Great stuff, Critter. Really good, timely advice, and lovely photos. It's high time people changed their way of thinking about insects.

(Also, thanks for the plug for my IPM articles!)

I realized this morning that I hadn't linked your articles at the bottom, so I fixed that first thing. You did a nice job of summarizing IPM basics and putting them into practical terms!

I enjoyed reading your article critter.
Very informational. Great closeup photos.

I have a giant bee nest under the shrub in the yard...LOL we just walk way around it.
But I will take a good look at what kind they are I might be able to id them from your article,
Thanks!

Er... I don't think my article is much good for identification, sorry about that... but you can probably get some help over in the bug ID forum! http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/f/bugid/all/

I'm glad you liked the article. :-)
