Thanks guys.
Yes I asked about the larvae as yes they are the most destructive. They are also the only things I've seen while I'm cultivating right now. If there are adults (there have to be) they are hiding right now.
While we often just "walk and squish" in the eggplant, there is way too many tomato plants to do that and they are spread around too much. Not all over but here and there. There are 63 - 350 ft rows with about 8,000+ plants. The larvae are mainly in the 1/2 of the field we got planted almost a month ago.
I'll have to mention to Hubby about the 5% rather than 2%. He usually takes care of the fertilizer and chemical issues here but will ask me to search for info if we are having problems with something.
I know way back when the BT for Colorados first came out, it was rather expensive and didn't work very well. I'm glad to hear that what's on the market now is more effective.
I haven't had a chance to look at that link yet.
Thanks for the info.
Carol
