Actually there ARE already, friendly flies there, too!! Apparently they lay their eggs in the cucoons of the caterpillars so that their numbers diminish the next year.
The friendly flies are mostly at the beach, but they don't seem to bother anyone, really...they don't bite, they just land on clothing and well....stay there until brushed off. They really are friendly. hahaha..yuck.
We've never had that happen there before, but apparently, according to our biologist/professor neighbour, it'll be 10 years until we see them again. So....WE'LL never see them again!! :redface: Kids might.
I'll take a friendly fly over a caterpillar anytime!!!
