I have a question about the flower Queen Anne's Lace and it's bug attracting qualities?

1 Answer

Answer :

What is a friendly pesticide anyway? The only reason pesticides would be regarded as “friendly” is because they do not kill anything. The flowers clearly attract ants. The pesticide does not kill them. Therefore, you should not be surprised at the outcome. Cut down the plant or spray with something lethal. Or get to love your infestation.
