They love the soy and the oil won't let them escape. In one summer I am sure I eliminated well over a thousand and the next summer there were very little.Lauranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30849155.post-50682951358512725862010-06-27T11:50:55.962-07:002010-06-27T11:50:55.962-07:00Got home to London to find shastas had invaded my ...Got home to London to find shastas had invaded my lawn. loved them, and was sad to have to mow them down.

I haven't noticed earwigs on them, but sometimes cucumber beetles go for the pollen. <br /><br />How fun that you added a batfaced cuphea - is this plant one that lived over winter? My plants didn't like 13°F so I had to buy a new one.
