A little green aphid walks across the dry desert of a parking lot. These small creatures are commonly known as garden pests, for they feed on plant juices.
Ants regard them as we do cows, and frequently form aphid herds which they tend and guard, in return for collecting a sweet sugary secretion that the aphids produce for them. If they're eating your garden, don't blame the aphids, blame their 'owners'.
