[QUOTE="Hippie Rancher, post: 1756300, member: 4203"] we get swarms of little bugs like that out of mustard weed when there has been a good winter. they will be all over the place for a week or so then disappear. like Travlr said, they are true bugs and most live by sucking plant juices. many are very specific to certain plants others are more general feeders. some are predators and some suck mammal blood. we have those too - kissing bugs or as Grandma called them, Walapai Tigers. we call them suck bugs. they like hot temperatures and can transmit Chaggas disease. never had that though the bastids bite us all summer.
