Harmful Bug Pupae??
11 years ago
Found these in my vegetable garden. They are approximately 5mm long and a shiny reddish-brown. I am located in Southern California (Orange County area.) I was weeding and found 20-30 of them near my young tomato plants. Anybody have any idea what they are or if they are harmful to the plants???
