Some gardeners believe that the ideal garden should be free of all foreign life forms.
But not all bugs and insects cause harm to the garden.
A certain category of garden regulars helps the owner of the plot fight real enemies.
Let's listen to the opinion of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
Which bug is better not to remove from the garden
Many gardeners have already realized that we are talking about the famous ground beetle - this beetle can reach 10 cm in length.
The ground beetle is blackish or metallic in colour with a blue or green tint.
It turns out that in a day this beetle can swallow up to 100 larvae of smaller insects or five caterpillars. Some species can eat a whole slug.
These beetles live up to 5 years – they can often be seen in concrete cracks or under stones. If you see a ground beetle, it is worth remembering that it is a friend of the garden and a natural enemy of some pests.
