Anyone dealt with them before? They eat the leaves and leave a lacy skeleton. It's very sad.

I have them now. I've been pulling the little fuzzy yellow things off everyday. My beans look just awful.

I did get some neem oil but I have not sprayed the plants yet. I hope it helps them.


Sorry that you have them...

Yep. I've pulled dozens of those little yellow @#$%^er's. I've also discarded the little egg masses. Has anyone has tried an insecticidal soap?
