Any idea what this is?

A butterfly egg clutch.


GASP really truly?

Yes, that what it looks from here :lol:
But what insect egg they are, you most understand that the caterpillars that will hatch from them will damage your garden.


I was thinking of trying to put it in a jar for the kids. When I googled "stick yellow brown insect egg cluster" I got the green assassin bug as the most likely candidate.

Were you the one that mentioned lemon slice for hard boiled eggs? Didn't have real lemon to slice but tried a couple tablespoons of lemon juice with a little salt on some week old eggs. Worked like a champ. I also put a small dent at the air cell side.


I wish I could take the credit, I read it forgot who posted it, but will try it.

It could be, I am not familiar with all the US insects!
But if it is the case, I was wrong on the other post, they will benefit your garden by killing all kinds of damaging insects.
