Asparagus beetle

  • We have new guests at home. We've taken the news as delightful creatures until we've met them!

They have stayed in one of the most endearing corners of our garden: the asparagus. At home from January to June we eat asparagus officinalis. During almost all the time of the year that the day is elongating are a whim, a whim to gather and fry the pan.

This year new guests have appeared to us. They also like asparagus. Its grace is Crioceris, more specifically Crioceris asparagi, the common asparagus beetle. This spring, we planted three other new ones next to the previous asparagus, and I would play the fingertip of the fingertip of the little finger of the left leg that I just cut off, on those plants we brought the ditch beetle.

It's not easy, it doesn't eat anything, it's just asparagus! Neither lettuce (Lactuca sativa), acellular (Beta vulgaris), onion (Allium cepa), or leek (Allium porrum). Asparagus and nothing else. & '97; What luxurious, sweetheart!

At first I tried to make his friend, until I saw him and met him in the weekly bulletin of diseases and pests of the Navarra era. I kept my mouth open, slug when I found out about the outfit I supposedly wanted to make a friend. It causes severe damage, especially in young asparagus, like ours.

Soon I started looking for their news there and here. It is the most widespread asparagus epidemic in Europe and America. They start moving around in May: if there are puff pastry, they eat, cover and lay eggs. A female lays between 80 and 90 eggs. They shall be opened at 3-10 days and the worms which shall only be eaten and eaten for 10-15 days shall be removed. When they've matured a lot, they throw themselves to the ground, where they hide in the skin. In a couple of weeks, mature beetles will appear. Every year there are about three generations. Mature worms and beetles eat new sprouts of asparagus and peeled leaves. And surprisingly, they like the new dots, the sweetest, the most modest. The consumption of new tips impairs growth, especially in the first years of the plant.

After learning about my daily work, I've collected worms and beetles and cris-cras. And the beetle is very nice, but ...

 

 

 

Eat and eat the asparagus beetle.

So-called agriculture and land cultivation
For the farmer, gardening is only an impediment. A lot of today’s “advanced” farmers think so. In their work they don’t need orchards, chicken houses, apples or hives.
