Sorry for the out of focus shot, these little buggers kept moving.

Can anyone tell me what they are? I think they are aphids and need to get rid of them. They have invaded my Petunia garden.

They eat other bugs, nymphs are stage 2 of a 3 stage life...

Will look more like some of these guys when they grow up and will have wings...

I don't pee in my garden, everyone else does.

I could pee in Funk's garden to clear those little buggers up... :)

Ok! When ya gotta go, ya gotta go! As for the pee, it keeps pests down. Now, you won't see those pesky little orange critters in Buck's garden. Pee does work and it's free. So who cares if the tomatoes and peppers are a bit more acidic than usual. Get over it. By the way, after my summer vacation planning is done, I may have a get together to grill out some chili dogs. No mustard. just a thought for those who could make it.
