Sunday Search of the Week 7-05-2009

by Will on July 5, 2009

Salsa in the vegetable garden…. No not what you are thinking, but maybe  what this week’s searcher was thinking:

“spanish bugs in my vegetable garden”

What I am wondering is how they know they are Spanish?

hi Will,
This is when it would be nice to somehow be able to contact the person that did the search and ask them what they meant. I tried googling “spanish bugs” and got nothing that made any sense. So I wonder if they really meant “spanish” or misspelled a different word? I trying to think of all the bug names I know (like earwig, potato bug, stink bug, etc) but can’t come up with anything close. Hmmmm…. Maybe they’ll look for “spanish bugs” again and they’ll find this post and let us know… ~ Steve

Maybe they were wearing teeny-tiny sombreros?

Teeny-tiny sombreros? That’s too funny JD! I’ll get my camera, set it to the macro focal length and head out to the garden to catch them in the act.

You know Steve I have sort of given up trying to track these down. I was told a while back that your search results will be different depending on what part of the world you are in. I originally thought they probably landed on one of my squash bug posts, but who knows. When I did a search I did find this handsome specimen:

Also several references to a Spanish Bug as in being sick throwing up etc.

Funny, lol!

Few times I got this search once: can you eat banana strings, or do banana strings have nutritional value – do they? I don’t know. lol.
