They ate a spider that was in the corner!
I bought a cocoon abaout a month ago and they finally hatched last week.
They all doubled in size over the last week. They eat the fungal knats and the lady bugs.
I through about 10 ladybugs a week in there.
There is no better sence of freedom then knowing that your garden has that extra bug protection.
It seems that there are about 20 or so from this one cacoon.
Don't forget to leave some water out for them to drink.
If you get lady bugs instead,make sure you get some regular flower polline.
Otherwise they won't mate.
