I have talked and will continue to do so in a section of the blog about animals that are harmful to the garden, but there are also many animals that are beneficial to the garden. These are the predators that help us control pests in the most efficient and clean way possible. Our job will be to attract them and respect them so that they can help us get the best harvests.

Dragonflies are another of those insects that are essential in our garden if we want to have a healthy harvest. They are especially beneficial for fruit trees as they are great predators of flies and small mosquitoes. They also feed on other types of pests but in smaller numbers.
The best way to attract dragonflies to our garden is to have a water area as they lay their eggs in water. If you live near a river or better yet a stream that always carries fresh water then you will not lack dragonflies. Another interesting factor about this insect besides its extraordinary beauty is that it is a bio indicator. If there are dragonflies that means there is little pollution.
Thank you very much for supporting my blog and I look forward to your comments.!
