Welcome to BYC!

What type of bugs are you seeing? What color and where are you seeing them? I would follow the links that Judy has provided. They will help you decide what type of bugs you are finding and how to treat them.

If you have any other questions, that is what we are here for. Welcome to our flock!

can't imagine what type of bugs that would be. Do you think she brought them in from the garden. Are they large or small?. Stationery or moving freely?
