When we first began farming our vineyard, we were rather clueless as to what the beneficial insects and parasitoids are but we slowly got the hang of who are the good bugs and who are the bad bugs. We also realized that we needed to know some of the lifecycles of these good and bad bugs so that we knew the appropriate action to take when faced with them.
Here is a lineup of some of the beneficial insects that we've seen in and around our vineyard.
