little green eggs

« on: June 07, 2023, 11:42 »

Hi, Whilst squishing green fly on my Strawberries I came across these little green eggs. Is there any way of knowing whether they are foe or friend? I dont want to be killing anything beneficial but having never grown strawberries before so dont know what to look out for.

They look like butterfly eggs.

Yes, they do look like shield bug eggs. Is this a problem for my strawberries (I am a strawb newbie)?
Should I remove them? If so should I destroy them or put them some where else in the garden?
