I'm surprised at how many tiny insects live in and around seed heads. I'm trying to make sure all of the little critters have a chance to flee before I take the seeds inside the house.

Sally, I've been taking excess native plant seeds to the woods, too....I tossed lots of New England Aster seed heads by the creek today. I know they won't produce anything but deer browse, but it feels better than putting them in the compost pile.
