Don't know what is eating my bougenvillias, but they have a huge appetite. What should I try?

I used this systemic granules for my orchids. Works great and keeps on working against pests.

The systemic granules will take care of many different kinds of insect pests. They are spread on thhe soil surface and then watered in. They are extremely effective.

I dont think this is the best option for outdoor plants...I think you should try any Neem Oil spray, it tastes terrible and deters chewing pests.

Pull off a leaf thats been chewed on. Place in a SEALed sandwich bag and take to your nearest nursery, ask them what pesticide you need.

They eat bugs and are otherwise harmless. Leave them alone.... or install lights and improve drainage.

Just about any bug that crosses their path. They mainly eat intrusive bugs in a garden. They hatched just fine and I saw some 3 - 4 inches long. They are pretty awesome and kept bugs out of my garden. Hope this helps!

Terri, I would send them back they shouldn't have arrived that way. To prevent in the future you can keep them frozen until you eat them? I buy them for my birds so the worms and bugs won't bother them. I wouldn't eat them.

I think you have gotten it wet. Mine does the same thing when it gets wet. The food goes to the very back with one piece in the middle to lure the critter in

We eat straight from the garden also and haven't noticed any eggs. I believe the ladybugs lay their eggs on the leaves...so eat up!

I just got a typical bag of seed that also had a lot of sunflower seeds. The cardinals that came to my window seemed to eat those a lot. Good luck.

They eat garden pests mostly! They are extremely beneficial. Fruitflies, crickets, locusts, flies, cokroaches, catapillers, moths, butterflies, meal worms, katydids, beetles, etc!!

The bottom of the container they are shipped in is full of food that will last far longer than the worms lifespan. It is a hard mixture that they slowly eat away. I have not seen them finish it by then time I've fed all 15 yet

let them eat their fill. eventually there will be fewer and fewer as they carry the poison back to their home. its sad in a way, they work so hard to get food back to their mates and its death. :)

That is kind of weird. I have seen my cardinals, wrens and chickadees eat these. It took them a couple of days to figure it out. You might try soaking them to soften them up a bit, I read that somewhere, although I see another person here says they won't eat them if they are wet. Also, I mostly feed these in the winter.

I'm sorry I can't help you out. All I know is they have a high protein count. Maybe you can get that info from the company.

Update to my previous response: I saw a squirrel crawl in today and remove the Contrac Blox in two large pieces. He must have gnawed it off the metal rod. He sat and ate the pieces on my deck. I was very surprised and glad my dogs weren't outside!

I agree with all of the responses before mine. I think you should put up one or two more feeders though. That will not eliminate what you are seeing, but more can feed because you apparently have lots of hummers! Lucky you.

Here is a good article explaining what they like. They would eat leftover carrots or apples or any other fruits and veggies. No meat. http://www.wormfactory.us/How-To-Feed-Red-Wiggler-Worms.html

not sure if there is anything that a crow can't eat out of; they are determined. Our feeders our right outside our window and we have other feeders with loose corn for the "pests", such as squirrels, crows and blue jays. They have tried to feed from them, but due to being so close to the house; they avoid them and go to the other far off feeders.

Many titmouses, cardinals, chickadees....regular run of the mill birds......all kinds ! Have no idea what your problem is! Maybe something is scaring them away from your feeder.....movement.....
