Well, I'm not dealing with any yet, and I'd like to keep it that way! I feel like we got bombarded with everything last year though - aphids decimated our jalepenos and bell peppers, hornworms, weevils, some other little brown caterpillars I never identified, more aphids on our flowers, stinkbugs, and probably more I can't think of at the moment.
