I've always loved this insect, even before mantids. I would give up my crops and grow a field of those!

Seriously! ANYHTING IN THE ROSE FAMILY! Do you know how damn important the rose family is for USA agriculture? I think you really need to start understanding WHY things are the way they are. These insects are banned for good reason.
