Description
A beneficial bug
It likes to chow down on aphids and mites, the bane of gardeners
If you want some in your garden grow what attracts them:
coreopsis, cosmos, sunflowers, dill, dandelion
SCIENCE FACT
Bats like to feed on flying lacewings
They zero in on them by using radar
But when the lacewing hears this echolocation it tries to thwart the radar by making itself smaller
It tucks in it's wings and drops to the ground
