# Can anyone help me identify these bugs I found when watering my Rose…

_Publicado por Amy el 2025-06-21_

Can anyone help me identify these bugs I found when watering my Rose of Sharon? I think they can up from the soil. They are marching like ants but they definitely are not ants. These are the best shots I could get of them (a dozen or so).  
I am all for the beneficial bugs but something tells me these aren’t those. 😡  
TIA

They're tree cattle nymphs. They're a beneficial insect that eat fungi and decaying material

Ahh! And I was assuming the worst! That would make sense-it’s super humid in my neck of the woods. Thanks so much!
