(Long-legged) Gnat laying eggs.

This summer I saw several of these gnats busy in the grass of my lawn. I found out that they were laying eggs. The larvas feed themselves with the roots of the grassplants, so I wonder what will rest of my lawn next Spring.

Hey, meneer de Jong, like Eric Clapton said: Wanna go out, baby, to late at night. Lawdy mama, no need to worry. Wanna go out, baby, to late at night. I got a real funny feeling You're gonna treat your daddy right. Long legged woman, come and hold my hand. Lawdy mama, no need to worry. Long legged woman, come and hold my hand. I got a real funny feeling You're gonna love some other man. Leavin in the mornin, your cryin wont make me stay Lawdy mama, no need to worry Leavin in the mornin , your cryin wont make me stay The more you cry babe, the more youre gonna drive me away. Groeten, O.
