So far, I sprayed the shit out of the backyard with spinosad as well as the DE. So far, 3 days later…no new damage. The Spinosad bottle says I can use it 5 times throughout the season so I will keep it up and the DE for as long as I have too. Really trying to avoid malathion as it kills bees and contaminates groundwater, but damn it, I’ll do it as a last resort.
