Sitona gressorius prefer to live in marginal areas, where lupins are naturally present or are grown. Since 1999, they have been occurring on mass in the main lupin production areas in Germany causing extensive damage. The adult beetles feed on the margins of the leaves, especially on young plants, and leave jagged edges like those on stamps, while their larvae feed on the roots of the plants. The leaflets can be completely bit...
...arvae feed on the roots of the plants. The leaflets can be completely bitten through (blue lupine). Small and bird's-foot broom are also eaten by Sitona gressorius. In June, the young beetles of the new generation hatch. They often enter residential areas, occurring in houses to such an extent that they constitute a plague. | | |
| | Drone flies are especially common in rural areas, (but are also encountered in populated areas), where they are often found in dunghills. They feed on nectar preferably from the sunflower family (Asteraceae) and the carrot family (umbellifers). | | |
| | | Propolis | Propolis is a mixture of different substances, that is mainly found in the openings, crevices and cracks of hives.
The base of propolis is a natural resin which is collected by honeybees, from buds or damaged areas on various trees, and is then processed and enriched.
As bees need a temperature of around 35 degrees Celsius to live together in the hive, good conditions prevail for the spread of diseases. Propolis is a plastic material and is therefore used ...
...ng antibiotic effect and kills fungi and microorganisms introduced into the hive.
Propolis is of importance medically. Nevertheless it is only used after cleaning and processing. Propolis preparations are subject to the law of medicines.

Examples include: Cricket, Great Green Bush Cricket, Chorthippus parallelus and Acrididae. They are found globally except in extremely cold areas. European species have migrated from colder regions, and also partly from the south because of increasing temperatures. | | |
| | Panorpidae (as all Scorpionflies) prefer shady areas in summer. They are often encountered in bushes and shrubs. They live on dead or injured insects and some species also eat nectar, fruit or the honeydew of aphids. Some also prey on insects trapped in spiders’ webs. | | |
| | Maps prefer to live in damp areas with nettles, which blooms - in addition to those of the Velcro – are delivering food (nectar). In Germany, the map overwinters as a pupa. In April, the spring generation hatch, the males slightly earlier than the females. | | |
| | German wasp | | The German wasp (Vespula germanica) is of the family Vespidae and of the subfamily Vespinae. They are found in Europe, large parts of Asia and some areas in Africa. The German wasp is a colony building insect. | | |
