I noticed we had some infestation on a plant near our front door, so I had a closer look. I then grabbed my digital camera and took a few photos. They turned out much better than I anticipated!
I may go to the nursery to buy some lady bugs. Apparently you can buy them to get rid of aphids in an environmentally friendy way. I like lady bugs, so this is perfect.
