This year as you all know we had a mild winter. That means for some reason that the garden pests of the insect world got a stay of execution from mother nature. They are coming full force in droves on plants with no prejudice.
One specific insect that I just found new knowledge of is the lily beetle.
All the information is in the first part of the link
Never experienced this pest before but then again, not a big fan of Asiatic Lilies but its a good thing to know.
I used Seven insecticide which worked before the damage was done at Louie's Garden.
Even spotted them on my Gardner Lake Lilies.
My Zinnia, Sunflowers, and basically every seedling I have started from seed and planted has been nibbled on by some sort of insect. Been spraying everything to nip this one in the bud.
