Beans, Peas & Legumes

bean beetle wasps

15 years ago

I remember reading about someone that ordered wasps to take care of mexican bean beetles. I had a major outbreak last year. Totally destroyed all my beans. I one got a few gallon size bags full out of 10, 10 foot rows and most of them had beetle chew marks in them. The year before I got bushels of beans. I was giving them away by the bag full.

I used to have the website saved but my old computer crashed and its gone.

Help!!!!
