Crumby Never Liked True Bugs, Ever

That’s because many of those bugs bite or stink. Some may bite and stink. Plus they eat up the greens. On the other hand, Crumby is always on the lookout for new plants that might compliment the extant CB flora. One such that would be a new plant for the CB is Euphorbia marginata, which grows handy to the CB but has never appeared at the CB. Obviously Crumby could wait forever for Euphorbia marginata to colonize the CB. Or, Crumby could take action, eventually fixing to actually introduce it himself.

But Crumby has learned the hard way that plants are not equally pleasing or cool to have around. Some plants are ecologically inert. Some crowd out all the other plants. Some cause stings, burns or rashes when handled or brushed against. Some wield stickers or sharp spines. Yes. There is much to consider about this or that plant. That’s why Crumby is carefully considering Euphorbia marginata from its bad side as well as its good side.

One important consideration is, What insects are liable to habitate on Euphorbia marginata? To find out, Crumby actually forsook the relative safety of the CB. Off Crumby went. West was his direction. Anon Crumby came upon a good many of the subject flora. Yet most of the subject flora had bugs. At first, Crumby thought the bugs might be giant ants. But no. Closer inspection showed they were bugs, baby bugs, that are also known as instars, nymphs, tot vermin.

The fact is, Crumby observed the subject plants for quite a while and the bugs were really the most overwhelming insect presence on the subject plants. So now, Crumby needs to decide if he wants even more nasty bugs at the CB than already live here.

And another thing, Crumby does not for sure know what kind of bugs these are. They may be Hyalymenus tarsatus, but maybe not. Plus, Crumby doesn’t know what they do. They seem to just sit around on Euphorbia marginata. But that could be a ruse. Maybe they are on their best behavior when people are watching. Maybe when the people turn away, those bugs get up to incredible high jinks. Who knows?
