pest exterminator

Hi Everyone
thought I'd share these photos of a very useful pest exterminator I found on my zelkova cutting this morning, doesn't it blend in so well with the coloring of the new shoots.
cheers

Haha always handy! My trees are full of those little grey Aussie jumping spiders and the occasional ladybug. That little guy certainly blends in well! My main problem these days is the really small caterpillars that stick your leaves together :evil:

Yep... that post needs some “expert nuisance control administration” to kick it’s sorry butt. :shake:
