is that one of those evil aphids that want to kill my plants?

[–] slowmorella@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

i think so. You can cultivate lady bugs to get rid of them

My carnivorous plants would eat the ladybugs, but not the aphids, because they're small and slow and stay out of the trap parts. Didn't get them this year tho.
