My experience has been that chickens will eat the dickens out of bugs and your garden produce also.

Being an ex-pesticide user .... (ok, sometimes I panic and still use it in one or two areas now and then) I lean more towards the benificial bugs. I don't like spiders but found that those horrid black jumping spiders that took over last year, seemed to eat up all the bad bugs too. Would you believe that my fear of them is lessening because of that!
