4 for 4 is darn good swatting. Well done. But I'm more concerned about the ones you didn't see.

Adults are active laying eggs for about 4 weeks from start to finish so it depends on when they started in your area this year.

I hope you have a fresh insecticide application on the plants. As eggs hatch the young larva need to get a lethal dose before boring or they win.

Drench as well. Use the double defence method.
