Yea, those small bugs/critters, if you look closely in the pic, lots of them feeding on the leaves. I have no prob with them, I just to know what they are and if they are safe to be fed to my aquarium fish :) Hmm....I googled water lice but didn't see any image looked like it. Thanks.

I agree with everyone else, pics are way to small. It took me a while to figure out how to make them larger but its easy (no wonder I couldn't figure it out!). Where it says to download pics, there is a thing below that says to reduce size but if you click to see the options, you can make them bigger. Just pick the size you want. Hope this helps. Marg

WONDERFUL! Thank you so much Linda! Can I ask -- I have a big 4' deep, 6' high "arch" with a 4"x4" grid right next to these, used for arbor-trellis. The vines are a problem, they've grown between the fence posts and the fence of my neighbor, and I need to try and gently get them out of there. Can I sort of gently just weave them over/ through the trellis-arch? I can devote that one to it, since these are in the ground right next to it. They were not meant to be trellis though and I'll have to give that whole arch over to them. They are one of the only plants I have in the actual ground (I use cinderblock 24-36" raised beds), so now I'm in a tizzy wondering how they are surviving our lousy soil and what I should put on them to help them. :-) I love January. I get totally garden-nuts, mostly because there is so little I can do besides clean up and winter sow. :-)

More pics. Any info would be very welcome. What approx value do you think this piece would have? It's in rough shape now, but pine underneath and I was thinking of stripping it.... drawers seem to be simply built-- not dovetail. Thank you so much.
