Leaf Roller Problem

joefalco
13 years ago

I am in Little River SC, and have read many people in SC are having leaf roller problems. I had this last year too and I am seeing them now along with slugs inside the leaves.

I don't use chemicals if I can help it, so what else can I do to control these bugs. I open up the leaves and shake out the worms, but does this do any good?

If the leaves are totally closed up I cut them off, Will this affect the plants future leaf growth?

If the worms are exposed will they be eaten by birds or will they just die or do I actually need to squash them?

THanks
