Description

It's every gardener's bane: creepy-crawlies wreaking havoc on our gardens, with no end in sight. But what if they're not all bad? Join us as Master Gardener and bug expert Penny Esplin walks us through all sorts of backyard bugs you may find in your garden and what benefits they can provide. Our gardens are habitats for many, including the smallest six-legged ones among us.
