honey, I blew it again.
I noticed the aphids were getting thick on my wife's roses. Knowing that those roses bring her great joy, I went on the attack. I hosed those plants down with Bug-Killer. I soaked them good from one side, then went around to the other side, just to make sure nothing would survive the assault. That's when I noticed the little ladybug nest. Prior to my arrival, my wife an son lovingly placed a bunch of ladybugs down in the lower branches of one of the rosebushes.
Shortly thereafter, the ground was littered with little black circles - the undersides of dead ladybugs.
Nothing to see here, kids. Move along.
