I’ve been finding a few new insects recently and this is one of them, the supposedly common Common nettle bug (Liocoris tripustulatus). Perhaps I’ve never noticed them because they tend to live mainly on Stinging nettle (and you know by now that I find nettles challenging – those stings!). This month I’ve seen them twice and they can, apparently, be seen all year round. And, fortunately, with their three yellow dots, these little (4 to 5 mm long) plant bugs are easy to identify.
