to the bees. I was reading about the parasitic wasps that feeds on the lice.

I have wasps flying around the lemon tree. I saw one of them sitting on the white eggs on the back of a leaf.

Do they also feed or inject the eggs as describe in your article of the parasitic wasps?. I saw that a lot of the undersides of the leaves are now black, where it was white before.

I am trying to take a photo of the wasps and will upload it, once I am successful.
