Nice! Do you keep your plants outside year round, or have any bug issues?

Year round. It's a constant battle with bugs!

That's why its great to know what pests accompany certain seasons and weather conditions. This way you can prevent them before they attack your orchids.

Grass hoppers, boll worm and katydids are by far my worst. I usually use tau fluvalinate which is extremely effective however this time of year is monsoon which makes application difficult.
I also border bushland so bugs are always in abundance!
