Florida Hemp, Controlling Glossy Winged Sharpshooters


 Do you know this sucking bug?  It’s a Glossy Winged Sharpshooter, Homalodisca sp., & is sucking on xylem of my #hemp crop. A green anole though is about to catch & eat it. GWSSs transmit Xylella bacterium damaging plants. Birds & anoles are good controls for this native bug who also leaves copious amounts of anal discharge. #floridahemp #freshfromflorida #ipm #permaculture #organic #cbd #arendellhillnursery #welovebugs #bugs
