Bugs and beetles are a wonderful part of our natural world. The ladybug merrily eats up aphids and other garden pests. The bumblebee is a gorgeous insect which moves gently from flower to flower, helping to pollinate them. Find ways to draw beneficial insects into your garden and lawn, and they will be your free, enthusiastic lawnscaping team!

I adore discovering Massachusetts bugs and figuring out what they are. All of these bugs and beetles were photographed in Sutton, Massachusetts. Please let me know if you have a bug or beetle found in Massachusetts that you'd like help identifying. I'll see what I can do! If you have a photo of one found in Sutton, I'd be happy to update my pages.
