I love columbines! not so much the bugs...
Thumb of 2016-01-24/dirtdorphins/5cfdb6

I was reading somewhere ? about sticky, western columbine attracting all manner of winged critters, the critters getting stuck on them, the carcasses of stuck critters coating them, thereby attracting carnivorous critters to eat the stuck bugs and hang out on the columbines to eat their pests as well
Seems to work, but it's kinda gross
