Japanese beetles are eating my corn, and Something is eating my peppers and tomatoes.

Something is eating my peppers and tomatoes.

Rainbow-colored and lime green grasshoppers were on mine.. they go for the tender flower buds first. Put sevin dust on them, haven’t seen them since.

Today I’m going to buy three cool-mist humidifiers from Goodwill, pour some pyrethrin I have in them and see if that kills off the mosquitoes - kinda like a poor-mans Mosquito Magnet. Should cost about 10 bucks, but I have no choice, I think I’m getting OFF sickness I have to spray so much. plus the OFF is stripping off the sealants of whatever I sit on, and that can’t be good.

Four o’clock flowers are supposed to be good for getting rid of japanese beetles, I’m experimenting with them this year. Haven’t seen any beetles yet, but I’m not sure if it’s the flowers or the weather.

Four o’clocks are highly toxic, but for some reason JBs can’t resist the taste, so they eat themselves to death.

You could try some insecticidal soap.

I have flowers coming on my beans. :-)
