Did you guys see the beautiful loofah and leaves? There is a fruit fly on it. Look at it. I don’t know if it is a male or a female. The female insects are harmful to the loofah. But it is male, it is not harmful.

Let's see if the leaves are beautiful? It's very beautiful. And there are no bugs at all, so where did the bugs go?

Let me tell you, see? Bugs are here——under the Alternanthera philoxeroides.

In fact, no matter day or night, many bugs will find habitat. We have always opposed the use of herbicides. The main reason of opposition is not because of its high-sulphur residues or harm to humans, but we oppose herbicides' damage to the ecology, the environment, and the diversity of plants.

All kinds of insects, whether they are insects or beneficial insect larvae. The damage of the environment, because insects have characteristics, they also need to rest and eat, they need food, and they also have their biological chain.

And we use a lot of herbicides to weed the grass cleanly. Although it looks beautiful, actually it’s lifeless. As a result, these bugs have no place to rest and no food to eat. So if they have nothing to eat, what do they eat then? They began to eat the vegetables and crops planted by humans, which is what the so-called “insects grab with humans”.

Under the premise of such a food chain, human beings not only use herbicides to contain insects from destroying the ecological environment, but also drive away insects, causing them to ask for the food needed from human beings. At the same time, human beings began to use a large number of pesticides with high residues to control, or to say, strangle these pests. What is the consequence? These pesticide residues begin to enter the environment, into the human life chain, into your body, into your intestines and stomach, into the breast milk of lactating mothers... they bring the outbreak of cancer and other diseases. Consequently, “ecology must be balanced” is what we say all the time.
