Thanks don, I knew it wasn't much. Any better pesticides out there to deal with stink bugs. I cut several leafs with eggs today. Killed half a dozen adults by hand, yuck!!

Russ, Stink bugs in Shangri-La, What's up with that.

N.c.

You need not cut off the leaves as the eggs are easily collected onto duct tape. However, as I learned last year, simply trying to collect all the eggs and hand squashing the adults will not solve the problem.

Kinda makes me wonder what sort of insect hatch we're gonna have after this rain lets up.

Ron, trouble in paradise this year. Wind that just won't quit, bugs out of control, slow growth, and heat that I'm not used to. Hottest day of the year last week (103*) and the outlet my mist timer is pluged into trips the GFI breaker. Came home to plants that looked like they were in a wildfire. Just hope to get one to a weigh-off this year.
