blister beetle
thought i'd seen them all (bugs, that is) but now i've got a new one- blister beetles for crying out loud! eat tomato foliage like oprah on a bonbon binge, apparently cause blistering of human skin and their corpses are poisonous to livestock (i'm on a dairy farm).
suggestions? preferably organic?? gonna hit them with rotenone/pyrethrin today after hand picking a bunch yesterday... |
