Squashed first of 2010 lily beetles

Farway

As title really, first bit of sun & I find a lily beetle eying up my snakes head fritillaries

Promptly squished, but a portent of things to come I suspect

We've been squishing them for a couple of weeks. Also spraying them with Provado, which is in a yellow 'bottle'

Yes, they are already up and at anything lily-based. In our case, our fritillaries. 3 squished already. We just get on top of these then the asparagus beetles arrive. Squishing gloves primed & at the ready!

Better go check my lillys then!

I squished a rosemary beetle this morning. Felt bad because A) it was obviously a bit dumb and nowhere near my rosemary and they are so beautiful. Ah well, stomp stomp stomp.
