War of the Weevils

Recent pest inventory from my garden:

• 1 leafeater
• 1 snail
• 1 caterpillar
  
• ~30 diapropes weevils
• lots and lots of aphids

Coming soon:

• 1 million nematodes to eat the weevil eggs
• lady bugs to take care of the aphids and the leafeaters
• trichogamma wasps to take care of the weevil larvae and caterpillar

Will update as things progress...

Bugs vs. Plants

It turns out carniverous plants are an excellent form of organic pest control. This venus flytrap ate a caterpillar that had previously ravaged my pitcher plants.
