Lily beetles create havoc with Snakehead Fritillaries. Open the picture above to see a mating pair, circled in the above picture. This pair got "organically treated" by crushing between my thumb and forefinger.
That makes twelve that I have crushed today, totalling twenty four in the last three days. How many more are going to turn up?
