A quick reading says you're probably right. I'll be on the look out for tiny black jumping things. I guess netting row cover needs to be added to my shopping list.

Meanwhile, my rain gauge appears to be taking the scenic route. Seven locations so far.

Guess there were no trucks going from Hodgkins/Springfield IL to St Louis. Will be interesting to see if it takes I-70 back across MO or jumps down to Springfield MO to get to the Mark Twain National Forest where I am. Est delivery pushed from Tues to Wed.(4 more days of rain) I guess Mr Rainguage wants to see a few more sites. I'm thinking Springfield up to Rolla UPS which is where our UPS deliveries come from.

Flea Beetles look terrifying when enlarged, but they’re really small in Real Life. Small enough to miss, but once you see them, they’re easy to spot; a bit bigger than a grain of ground black pepper.

I blast them with insecticidal soap if/when they show up.

1 tsp. mild liquid soap (Castile works great) with a quart (4 cups) of water in a spray bottle.

I can’t stand when packages are misrouted. Pet peeve of mine.
