    Perhaps, they've never attacked my primroses (primulas & polyanthus) before, but this year they've (stopped now) gone for them with a vengeance.

    If they're spending all their time picking inedible flowers & buds, then I'm not surprised they're in decline.

      Oh, how I wish they were Scrungee! I've even see them trying to tear off the overlapping roofing felt under my neighbours new roof so they can get in to nest. :gaah:
