the Praying Mantis ...THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!

THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!

Walking around the Farm the other day and we spotted this Praying Mantis hanging out on a Cottonwood tree.

We have a variety of insects and bugs crawling and flying around at various times of the seasons. Each bug has a crucial role in the eco-system we have built around our Farm.  The absence of synthetic chemicals is the #1 reason why this Mantis is able to thrive here.  Synthetic pesticide and herbicide chemicals use would drastic change in the eco-system and could kill or minimize beneficial insects.
