Oh God - I'm stressed!
My mister is just gently misting the leaves - not nearly strong enough to actually wash any off, so I'm probably going to have to try removing them by hand (NIGHTMARE!!!!).
Unfortunately they
have got my summer squash and courgettes too (the winter squash plants are just RIFE) so I'm there with you foggers.....that's about 14 plants and ofcourse because they're so bloody large it's very tricky just trying to get to all the leaves!
Am seriously considering ordering some ladybird larvae, but looks like they'd take at least a week to come plus it's not that cheap considering the quantity I'd probably need lol.....and anyway, it's apparently slightly pointless if I haven't tackled the ants too.
I would try just
calming the fuck down and tackling one plant at a time, one leaf at a time, but then I worry like foggers that they'll just come straight back from the colonised plants anyway.
ARGH!
