The bad guys for some trees . You find it useal in olive trees , lemon trees and orange trees , and they make big damage as they are able to make dry the trees . To fight it the Biologists put on the trees other  bugs where when they are adults they eat them  like a fresh bread .

Hi

A nice shot of this little scale insects - great to get two so well aligned and hence sharply defined within the image. A pleasure to see, and its the same over here, but our farmers concentrate upon spaying everything into oblivion

All the best
Matthew
