in WORLD OF XPILAR4 years ago

Hello friends of @WorldofXpilar & lovers of nature, greetings to you all. It has really been excited moment sharing with you in this community, since we have a lot of great refreshing of natural phenomenon to watch and learn.

This morning as I decided to make clean up exercise around my fence wall outside my neighbor's house which has been abondoned for some months ago. The place was very weedy nearly to turn a canopy trespassing my fence wall to my house yard. I was weeding the place to eliminate any invasion of wild animals such as snakes. Also the place has been a breeding ground for mosquitoes. In the course of weeding, I found two important pest when weeding; caterpillar & millipede.

The caterpillar was first found on one of the on a plant. Lately I found another one one plantain which are growing by one of my neighborhood house. This place has become a harbouring place for such pests. That's why they are found here. They are hidden under leaves and shrubs found here. During the day, they get shades. The morning dew make the green leaves become succulent for them to easily chew. Especially the caterpillar is fond of chewing the leaves of these plantain that's why they are hidden here.

They are such toxic animals when they happen to come in contact with your body. When they are in groups, they they destroy crops like: okro, tomatoes and garden eggs. They are very fast in chewing leaves.

The millipede was found after clearing the shrubs. It was running at a top speed. I had to shot it at a top speed too. When the rain season began these millipede penetrating my room. On two occasions that I had seen them, it happened to me like a dream. But I was lucky to see them at a right time. Despite these animals are helpful to the soil, they are dangerous to humans.

But, I found them very lovely this morning on at the back of my fence wall. In fact nature is so beautiful. These creatures are beautiful to see.

Thanks for admiring nature and our beautiful environment. Keep sharing through the World of Xpilar community. I'm @oppongk.
