How can I identify common garden pests

Sure! Here are six different ways to identify common garden pests:

**Look for Damage**: Check your plants for signs of munching or holes in the leaves. If you see any weird spots or discoloration, that might be a clue that pests are around.

**Check Under Leaves**: A lot of pests like to hide under the leaves, so flip them over and see if you spot any tiny bugs or eggs. Spider mites and aphids love to hang out there!

**Use a Magnifying Glass**: Sometimes, the little critters can be hard to see with the naked eye. A magnifying glass can help you spot those tiny pests like thrips or mealybugs.

**Look for Sticky Residue**: If your plants have a sticky film on them, it might be honeydew from aphids or whiteflies. That’s a good indicator that you’ve got some pests hanging around.

**Watch for Ants**: If you see ants crawling around your plants, they might be farming aphids for their honeydew. So, if you spot ants, take a closer look at your plants!
