I believe that I have several eggs on my Milkweed plant.
I know that I never mentioned this because when I was pruning my Yew bushes on the North side of my house,I saw what looked like a milkweed plant. I checked for eggs and saw some fuzzy white round spots and on one on the other leaves some black elongated objects. Well, I decided that maybe it was just a piece of dirt. I left the plant and went inside to verify.
Several days later, having determined that they were eggs on a milkweed plant. I look closer and saw red spider mites and no black spots. Just before this a violent thunderstorm rolled over the area. I have brought a leaf and a white spot onto my back porch for observations. Just to make sure about my study.
