I too have seen a smaller pest population than is usual for this area. I was expecting a huge pest explosion after that mild winter. I have seen some of the usual suspects but not in the numbers I usually have and I'm loving not having to use pesticides much this year. This must be how it is for those people in other parts of the country who talk about not using pesticides and letting nature take its course. It is a welcome change from natures regular course down here.
