You think they will become extinct, like?

That would be the global warming, innit?

Just read the forecast for month ahead.
It doesn't bode well for you that dislike the cold frosty snowy weather. No end in sight in fact.
Fantastic! happy088

Those aphids will be shitting themselves now, mark me werds. cloud9:

TBH I quite like the cold, crisp weather myself (despite coming from the deep south) BUT my angina doesn't  evil:

Don't care about the aphids, ladybirds will take care of them ........ all this cold weather should kill off a lot of Queen Wasps so with luck we will have fewer "jaspers" to worry about come next Autumn
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

Could be actually. I need a new interest.
Young Growler jnr is filling me in on these things via his horticultural course at Northop. Loads of books with piccies of pests and related stuff. Very interesting actually. rubschin:

He's doing garden machinery this term. Sit on lawn mowers and stuff.  cloud9:
