Milkweed Bugs
These are milkweed bugs. I think they're kind of pretty. Unfortunately, they destroy milkweed seedpods. Milkweed is the main food source for Monarch butterflies.
Milkweed bugs are found throughout North America, Souther Canada, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.
These insects prefer disturbed areas, roadsidesn and open pastures. This is also where milkweed is found!
Thanks for looking! Stay tuned!
