Have quite a few snails but not many slugs. Not seen a lot of ants either, maybe it has been too cold for them to show themselves.

We have ants by the million. Ladybirds are scarce. No slugs or snails but I have my lovely hedgehog to thank for that.

Hello AnnC,

Normally my roses would be infested with greenfly by now, and ants crawling all over the peony buds, but nothing this year.
We normally get ants crawling up between the cracks in the paving too, but not this year.

Tec :-)

It is noticeable that this year so far, there are no ants, green/blackfly, or ladybirds in my garden.
Also the snails and slugs seem to be greatly reduced in numbers compared to other years.
Has anyone else noticed this?

Tec :-)
