can anyone identify these strange orange wriggling bugs? They appear in very large numbers at the edges of things - gate posts and plants - when it’s hot and sunny. Never seen them before. They don’t seem to damage the plants - not yet anyway- but do seem to bite - though that may just be my skin crawling!

    No pic attached sorry but maybe red spider mites?
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Click on the wee mountain icon in the toolbar Stephen, and follow the instructions. It helps if the pix aren't too big - about 1 to 2MB will load easily  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
