A couple of interesting video clips

First up is a beneficial insect in action.  Most people don't like the red wasp, but they sure do help keep the caterpillar population down.  In this clip, a red wasp is on a kale plant devouring an imported cabbageworm.


This is a very short clip of a squash vine borer (SVB) trying to get back into a zucchini plant.  There were 8 of the little nasties in there.  This year it was the only plant we've lost to the SVB.
