    I don't know what they are but those egg casings look like miniature, lidded jars to me.

    They are stink bugs. People call them pop top cans.

    I found out quite a bit about them. I don't think our American members would have been too pleased to find those in their gardens in the 1990's!! I presume they got into the USA via plants from East Asia. Destructive little bugs.
