Importing from another LR catalog

Question

I am trying to clean up my LRC catalogs. I have SO many of them! I've been using the "Import from another catalog", and it's working fine. However, once I have imported into my existing catalog, can I then delete the ones that are still sitting in my folder? I'm really confused! I have attached a view of my folder - LOOK AT THEM ALL! There must be a lot of redundant files here, right? Please help!

If the import is completed successfully your can delete the appropriate catalog including all corresponding folders.

Before you delete some files I would recommend to make a backup of all files.
