RUG Patrol Officers

Every rooftop needs a security team — mine just happens to have eight legs, delicate wings, or tiny hunting jaws. Under the Leaf Patrol is where I follow the natural guardians that keep my garden balanced: spiders, ladybirds, lacewings, assassin bugs, and all the quiet predators who work the night shift and the early morning hours. If you’ve ever wondered who keeps pests in check on a windy urban rooftop, this is their daily report.
