My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Harlequin bugs- serious problem?

14 years ago

I noticed in my front perrenial garden bed some harlequin bugs (shaped like stink bugs but shiny black with red marks). I read in a book they can be truly destructive, and saw their damagage on a few plants. I've only handpicked them so far.

Anyone had experience with these bugs?
