permaculture

["John D'hondt" <dhondt@eircom.net>]

We had a pet tarantula that thrived on stink bugs. She got addicted to them 
and would touch nothing else in the end to the point where she starved 
herself when winter came and the stink bugs disappeared.
And ducks may have to be trained to eat stink bugs (or any other prey) when 
they are young. A six month old duck that has never seen and tasted a slug 
avoids slugs for the rest of it's life in my experience. I have a bunch of 
chickens here who go crazy for earwigs and that too needed a helping hand.
