Question

Od 2023 roku już obserwowałem u siebie usychanie gałęzi i roślin. Chodzi i żywotnika zachodniego i Cyprysik Lawsona Columnaris niebieski . Walczyłem z usychaniem tych roślin przez opryski od chorób grzybowych i zacząłem je podlewać, nie pomogło. Teraz jestem pewien, że to dumek jałowcowy (Lamprodila festiva), w załączeniu zdjęcia . Chciałbym potwierdzić iż występuje już na zachód od Warszawy od kilku lat. Pozdrawiam, Mariusz

Answer

Thank you for the information. We confirm that it is indeed this species, and we are aware of its rapid spread northwards. Your observation is clear evidence of that. Best regards, Milan Zúbrik

Question

No damage, i just spotted it near it on the drive way and also in the garden.

Answer

Thank you for the information. It is Pyrrhocoris apterus, the firebug – a common true bug that lives on various trees, especially lindens. It feeds by sucking plant sap but usually does not cause any serious damage.Best regards, Milan Zúbrik
