My Wisteria (Pale Pink Japanese) is currently getting devoured by some sort of insect. 6 months old. we tried some insect sprays and they just turned the leaves yellow and did more damage than good.  |

 Do you live in Australia? Your photo doesn't show much (Stems, boards..). Have you seen these insects? Can you send a photo? Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost President: Orchid Society of Northern Nevada Webmaster: osnnv.org |

| I googled Geelong... Also googled kudzu bugs in Geelong... Couldn't tell whether you have them yet. I wish the Chinese wisteria here looked like that. I also googled pink Japanese wisteria aggressiveness... It's a thug. Rather than dumping poison on this future problem.... Look around and see if you can't find a more appropriate vine. If nothing else.... Try planting runner beans. Sorry I can't help, but... If its a bug, you're gonna have to catch them in the act and get some pictures. In the future, never put poison on the plant, when you have no idea what the problem is. |

| Hi, we found some small caterpillars which are logically the culprit. Any tips on the best way to persuade this little vine eaters to move on? All help appreciated!       |
