During this workshop we will learn all about the good insects in your garden and how to encourage their presence. We know about how great ladybugs and praying mantids are, but did you know there are many more awesome insects out there that can help eat those pesky caterpillars and aphids? Students will also receive several handouts that contain helpful resources and information on beneficial insects and pollinators. Next we will check out some pre-collected beneficial insects and take a little field trip to see what we can find around the garden. Finally we will paint with giant Madagascar hissing cockroaches!
