Hmm, I've had people tell me both ways. So you think a broad spec insecticide would do the trick?nope those are not leaf miners.. im not sure what they are tho.
this is what the damage looks like from leaf miners.. http://www.gi.alaska.edu/ScienceForum/ASF17/1753pic2.jpg
That's the thing, I keep killing them. I just picked 15 off three of my six plants last night. They keep coming back, more everyday!woahhh wait a minute... i just now saw the larvae in the first pic. it looks like a small caterpillar. KILL THAT BITCH!!!! just squish it, no need for insecticides.
Any products that are sold locally that contain pyrethrum? Now that you mention it, the larger "larvea" are turning green and resemble caterpillars. So thanks for the advice!well i suggest u get some insecticide asap... BT is what is mostly used against caterpillars.. http://www.homeharvest.com/bt.htm
if you cant get that i would go with pyrethrum, kills just about every bug on contact. the BT takes 2-3 days to work tho.
make sure theres no way bugs are getting in from outside.
well if you have a wallgreens in your area, thats where i got some Shultz houseplant and garden insect spray. that stuff works pretty good for me. any garden section should carry it.Any products that are sold locally that contain pyrethrum?
