Hitch Hikers

Is there a post, thread or article that helps identify hitch hikers? I would like to know specifically if any are bad. I've got a ton of stuff growing/ appearing right now.

Melev has a good website with pictures of many organisms, not all of which occur as hitch hikers.

Here's another one which specifically focuses on hitch hikers.

I could've sworn that there was a thread titled 'Pictures of absolutely everything,' or something to that effect, which was prominently stickied at the top of one of the forums on RC, but I can't locate it in time before RC goes down for backups.
HTH.

Hello Sparky,

if you want to identify the hitchhickers in your avtar I believe you will not find them in the links...

regards

Markus

That's alright- I already know they are a nuisance.... they are expensive to keep as well!
