It took forever to get rid of them and I had three acres of flowers!!<BR/><BR/>I had to say good-bye to all of my Asian lilies. They like those the best. The poor plants had leaves that were just holes. That's when I started to think chemicals had their uses."ME" Liz Strausshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10711283307459944821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14775685.post-1152585908967216882006-07-10T21:45:00.000-05:002006-07-10T21:45:00.000-05:00Michael,Thank you!That picture of yours always mak...Michael,<BR/>Thank you!<BR/>That picture of yours always makes me smile.<BR/>liz"ME" Liz Strausshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10711283307459944821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14775685.post-1152585862195727302006-07-10T21:44:00.000-05:002006-07-10T21:44:00.000-05:00Ahh but these Asian ladybugs look exactly like reg...Ahh but these Asian ladybugs look exactly like regular ones ... except that they are more orange than red.

I was 10 years old.<BR/>Check my blog for the post later tonight. I think you'll see what I mean.

AHHHHHHHHHHHH! Now THAT is a desire I can agree with! However ... ladybugs do not make me smile! LOL We were invaded with them last fall and when you see your white walls turn to orange with black dots ... and then it starts to move ... well its not exactly fun! They STINK ... and leave yellow stains. Of course they really aren't the ladybugs you are speaking of ... they are the similar, but oh so different, ASIAN lady bugs! I guess I could still smile to stoop down to see a flower and find a TRUE ladybug crawling to greet me!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13441809988487585009noreply@blogger.com
