Spinosad is an organic product and can be used on edibles as well.
Its under the label: Captain Jack's Dead Bug Brew.
I am just sick...
Roses starting to pop here in Michigan
but I've got some frickin plague of a bugs eating ALL my roses.
Suddenly, like within a week or two... brown, yellow and skeletonized leaves.
Arrrrghhhhh!!!
Never had this huge of a problem ever!
Last year it was just on a few roses...now its on all of them!
My problem is I'm so busy its hard for me to get out and spray.
I did spray 2 of my roses about a week ago with Capt. Jacks
and they seem to have minimal damage.
Been spraying all my roses over the last 2 days.
Does anybody know if I might be dealing with something more than just rose slugs?
Zuzu what do you use?

Will post some pics tomorrow.
