chancethegardener I am trying to find out the stage they live in the ground if any of their body is made of chitin - if so crushed crab shell feeds chitin micros that eat the chitin - so if the stage they live in ground, and they have chitin, the micros could kill them off.

One would think there would a list of bad garden insects that had chitin in them (or surrounding them - in the case of JB the grubs have chitin jaws so the micros eat that and they can't feed)
