Tachind Flies - and many other predatory insects, such as Brachinid
Wasps - can be attracted to your farm by planing plants with
umbilleferous flowers, including yarrow, queen anne's lace (especially
in your hedge rows), fennel, letting parsley go to seed, etc.
These plants also attract insects like the soldier bug -
