Re: good bug bad bug

Donna, I doubt you are going to lose anything. I have no idea what their host plant is, but I've had them for years now and I've never seen anything eaten. Today I saw one for the first time in the Home Depot shrub yard. It was getting nectar from the lantana.

Subject: [CHAT] good bug bad bug
Everytime something wanders into my yard, I always wonder.....is this good for 
the gardens?
Today for the first time I seen a hummingbird clearwing moth. Seems it likes the bottlebrush bush now that is blooming. Of course, I could never catch the darn thing, even with a camera lens very well, but if there is one, there has to be more somewhere.... I guess what I am asking is what plant am I going to 
loose now that they are here?
