Here's my BugFiles entry for it. Interestingly, I had the comment that that swarmed on the same date , Oct 30, last year too. I now have a reason to feel OK about not getting around to pruning these hedges earlier this fall; now when I prune I'll be getting rid of some of the eggs. Oops, I ,eant to put this link in to Bugfiles-http://davesgarden.com/guides/bf/go/865/ This message was edited Oct 30, 2007 11:03 PM |
