@paulgem123 yes I can. I too am battling them this summer. They are: Three-lined potato beetles (and their eggs and larvae). I've read that Thurcide works. It's basically a liquid bacteria that the bugs end up dying from and it doesn't harm other animals that might eat them. It takes a few days to be effective. The other option is to pick them off & squish them or to put them in a soapy water mixture and drown them.
@TheNaturalPrincess Thank you they call them a stripped cucumber beetle too. I found a interesting article and posted it on my video I made. I will have to check out this Thurcide. Thank you!
Can you help me identify this tamatillo bug?
