The Spinosad seems to be working for rose slugs but nothing else.
It says it works for beetles etc. but I have seen no positive effect when
using them to killed a little striped beetle I get that leave brown spots
all over the leaves and Rose Chafers ( a scarab beetle) that are just as bad as
Jap Beetles which i have too.
This will be year # 2 after Milky Spore application...hoping to see better results
than last year. I could KICK myself for forgetting to put down Nematodes this
spring before the Rose Chafers emerged. Angry
