A Zebra Swallowtail Butterfly spotted at the Patuxent Research Refuge in Maryland.
It’s summertime and the bugs are BUZZING. Our friendly neighborhood entomologist is here to warn of the dangers of longhorned ticks and disease-carrying mosquitoes, but also to revel in the joys of miner bees and lady bird beetles. Bugs aren’t all bad, folks, and the “Bug Guy” has all the tips you need for repelling the worst and saving the best.
