Two die-hard fans of AC Milan-loving striped bugs (Graphosoma italicum) in the process of securing the next generation.

 

This species needs quite a lot of sunshine and higher temperatures and if everything goes according to plan, they reach their adult form in early August. With poor weather, the development is slowed down and any specimens which haven't reached adult form when it is time to hibernate will die as it needs to be in the final form to be able to survive the winter.
