Early spring - after last frost and weather is acceptably warm, treat with beneficial nemetodes from Arbico Organics. Will take out larval stages of all the beetles.

For potato bugs, I have found planting beans (specifically yellow and purple wax beans) between each potato row, close enough to touch, to eliminate the problem for me. I haven't seen a single potato bug in 7 years of doing this. Last year I had a forgotten potato plant grow on the other side of the garden where I had no beans and yep... the potato bugs found it and ate it. They left my other ones alone though. :)

The pickleworm is my nemisis. They don't just infest cucumbers, they infest summer squash too. They show up, just as the first fruit is ripening. There is nothing worse, than picking a cucumber or squash, and finding it is riddled with pickleworm holes with pickle worms eating the fruit from the inside out, except not seeing the bore hole, and biting into the fruit and getting a mough full of pickleworm surprise. LOL. The only thing I've found that works is regular treatments with Spinosad, or BT. I'm hoping it works for hornworms too. Last year, they devastated my tomato crop overnight. I had to remove four damaged dreveloping tomatoes because of cut worm damage, and found two cutworms. They've been terminated with prejudice.

Where I'm from, that white butterfly is called "cabbage white". Its larvae are really caterpillars, rather than worms. Worms have no "feet" for traction; caterpillars do. The green caterpillar shown at 2:09 isn't the cabbage white's caterpillar; it's a brown moth's caterpillar. Cabbage white caterpillars are not plain green; they have some speckling in their colouring.

I agree with you on cabbage worms. I've used BT with success for years. This year I had planned on just trying a row cover, but life got in the way, and I'm not doing a lot of brassicas this year. So that idea will be shelved until next year. Harlequin Beetles are the bane of my garden. They do almost as much damage as rabbits. Unfortunately nothing kills them, including your suggestions. On potato beetles, I've found neem to be very effective. It's pretty much my go to when I see them. As for the other insects, I don't have any problems with them. Just as an FYI Bug-geta is VERY TOXIC to dogs! I lost a dog to it after I treated an area. I won't go into details about exactly what happened, because it's too painful, but she died a horrible death a few hours later. If you insist on using it, SUPERVISE your pet around that area for a few days after.

Hi Gary! You went over the Colorado potato beetles- my potatoes (2- 20 gal grow bags) leaves are being eaten terribly! They’re very lacy, but I don’t see any potato bugs…I don’t see any bugs at all! What should I do? One bag should be flowering soon as I planted very early in a cold frame. Looks like I’ve got potatoes coming up- I’ve had to cover a couple with dirt! So the ones I’ve seen look healthy. Should I just not worry about it?

Only if the soil is bone-dry - DE doesn't work when wet. It is basically the shells of diatoms which are basically silica; as long as it's dry, it acts like microscopic shards of glass, cutting into the exoskeletons of insects which then leaves the insects dehydrating to death.

Not in the soil. DE is about grinding the joints of beetles. The Rusted Garden Vegetable Seeds & Home Garden Supplies: www.therustedgarden.com Earn 15% and become a TRG Affiliate for our seed & garden shop Sign Up Here: bit.ly/4aarkDD

Interesting video thanks. The fascinating thing for me is to hear how different our two languages are: American and English😉 I'm British and it would be easier for me right now to show how many beneficial insects there are in my garden. I know you are advising targeted solutions but dusting as you describe seems a little indiscriminate to me. I manage my lawn organically and allow many small species to flower either by by-passing them or leaving a good length of grass blade but it is still a lawn. I grow in the organic flower garden what does well there and don't worry about any pests. I mean if the pests eat it and it still did its job fine (because holes in Hosta leaves etc late on don't bother me) otherwise I would grow something else. My wildflower garden (a third of my garden) is under and surrounds five trees links my flower and my fruit and vegetable garden and is 100% organic as is the fruit and vegetable garden. I use on the vegetables nematode worms of different types applying three times in spring early summer and once in autumn. Netting is essential to protect against birds, butterflies and moths. When I find a snail I squash it slugs I chuck into the wild-flower garden but there are few of those. I accept some occasional small damage to vegetables but still generate a significant surplus.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Right. That's why I don't use any pesticides. I either spray with water or pick them off by hand. Only thing I use is snail bait.

I just have a bunch of mature dill, cilantro and spinach I had growing in my winter grow room...planted them outside and they ae now bolting... attracting a variety of beneficial insects... and some trap crops... spinach and arugula isn't doing well directly in the soil but they are getting attacked...I think it's helping to relieve the pressure. I always have a hoop house with insect netting over my brassicas... no way around it. and slug pellets around that. i give up growing my greens in the garden...I keep em on my front patio away from the ground.

The very best thing I've found for Colorado Potato beetles are ladybugs!! They eat the eggs. I ordered live ladybugs years ago and went several years with zero beetles, after hand picking hundreds per day!! This year I'm finding only 6-8 of the red larvae a day and have only found 3 adults. Love my ladybugs!!
