One Minute Pollinator of the Day:
- Syrphid flies or Hoverflies: Syrphids are flies (order Diptera) that often mimic bees and wasps. As adults, they are excellent pollinators, and can contribute highly to pollination. As larvae (babies), they are predatory against many types of pest insects, including aphids and moth larvae that eat vegetables and other crops. These little guys (and gals) are doing double duty in your garden or on your farm! Not all flies are irritating picnic menaces!
Thank you
