Green insect ID
15 years ago
I saw several of these in my vegetable garden today and I haven't seen them before. Anyone know what they are?
The radish leaf they are sitting on is 1.5-2" long.
Mostly, I want to know if they are going to eat my plants or if they might help me out by eating other insects.
Thank you for any help!
