my partner, making lunch: why is there a bag labeled “live bugs” in our fridge?

me: don’t eat that

him:

me: they’re my new bugs

him: we already have bugs

me: those are the old bugs. the new bugs eat the old bugs

him: what’s next, frogs?

me: ooh

@rebeccawatson

Please forgive my nosiness, but why do you have bugs?

@MollyNYC @rebeccawatson natural pest control. Kill ants, weevils other nuisances. You can also get larvae for ladybirds and lacewings to tackle aphids early in the season.

@davoloid @MollyNYC yep! my plants have some fungus gnats who seem to be too smart to fly into cups of soap and vinegar so I’m deploying the troops
