I was wondering when these were going to show up, and today I found them chewing. Crushed all I could find before going off to work, and came home to find another handful here and there to crush.
I know these things are going to mass produce in the next 2 weeks to the point of uncontrollable chaos, so I'm wondering about sevin-dust. On my vegetables, fruit trees, and grape leaves, I've always dosed them with the sevin-dust, and it works well, and I can still consume the product when harvest comes. Can I do this with the hops?
I've read about soapy solutions, and lure bags that draw them away, but I need a fail safe incase they actually decide the hops are better than anything else in my yard.
Suggestions appreciated.
