When I had a huge June etc. beetle problem with the Palm stock at the nursery. I needed them to look perfect and the beetles used to chew the heck out of the leaves- we used to rent plants out to Hollywood for movies (yes, you may have seen some of my babies in the Jurassic Parks, 6 days 7 nights... etc.) or use them as interior/exterior for some pretty upscale places and I needed them pretty. I used a heavier dose of liquid Sevin. I liked it because I did not need a sticker and it killed the beetles dead, dead, dead. So, I was able to weather the seasonal infestations at the large nursery. Yes it leaves the leaf a little hazy but that has been the best (cheapest, most simple too!) that I have found. I know we are different places/zones and these are different plants but it may be worth a try. Just don't let the girls eat spoils dead on the ground, though I believe Sevin to be a lesser toxic products on the market last I checked.Not much going on here today, busy busy at work. Still fighting the endless fight on the japanese & mexican beetles.
We have a different selection to choose from depending on what products are being run in the factory that week. This was the first time in the 5 months that I have worked there that they had those 2 products available. And yes, I was all over them!My thoughts exactly! We use the permethrin on our clothes when we go wheeling in the woods for ticks & skeeters - I'd be all over that 2 cans a day! Especially not having to mix it up in a sprayer!
@igorsMistress Nope, way too hot!! Ugh.
Not much going on here today, busy busy at work. Still fighting the endless fight on the japanese & mexican beetles. The chickens are getting all the lettuce that bolted, they definitely love the endive the best. They wanted nothing to do with the beetles I dumped, ungrateful little witches.
Cool & cloudy today, back to hot & humid tomorrow & for the foreseeable future I think. Great.
Have a good one all!
