Praying Mantis, preys on most insects, mites and insect eggs. Use 10-100 egg cases per year per acre in early Spring. Hang an egg case in bushes or attach to anything 2′ or more above the ground. Egg cases may be stored in the refrigerator just above freezing with slight dampness.

Mason Bees

Did you know that Mason Bees are actually better at pollinating then honey bees? One Mason bee can pollinate up to 12lbs of cherries which would take about 60 honey bees to pollinate.  They are also very cost effective and it doesn’t take much at all to start or maintain. Mason bees are also very gentle and very rarely sting. If you are stung it has been said that it feels like a mosquito bite. This means you won’t need to buy any special clothing!

These bees are really a must have for any veggie garden or orchard.
