Green Lacewing Hello my name is Gracey. You would better know me as an iridescent green glassy-winged insect who lays her eggs on long slender white stalks all over the garden. You very rarely see me on your plants because I like to carry my snack wrappers on my back as fashion accessories. My favourite home is amongst veggies, roses, or any other part of the garden where I can find my favourite snacks which are aphids, mites, juvenile whitefly, small caterpillars and moth eggs. I will also eat mealy bug if they are the only food you have in your garden. Like my Buddies, I am delivered to you in a small plastic container. I come as an egg with 99 of my sisters, packed in Lucerne chaff. Sprinkle the chaff equally into small shallow cardboard containers or my very own release boxes and hang them close to my favourite food so that when I hatch I can start eating straight away.
