| I was wondering if someone could tell me what kind of bugs these were and what is wrong with the leaves of this plant? |

| Those bugs are Harlequin Bugs. Its possible they are chewing on the leaves. Gladys |

| Yup, harlequin beetles. They love all brassicas, arugula, horseradish and a few other things. That looks like HB damage to me. Just hand squish 'em. |

| I have a garden of Collar greens full of Harlequin bugs. How can get rid of them organically without hand squishing each? Is there something I can spray? I have heard Warsp can get rid of them but who wants to be stung by Warsp trying to control this bug. Any help will be appreciated. |

| Some possibilities: neem spinosad |
