| Is there another insect I can use to attack the borers in my rose garden? I hate to have to glue evry cane on 80 plants. I was contemplating trying beneficial insects this year. |

| I did a search on can borers and that's how I found your thread. I have lots of cane borer damage this year. I bought a new glue by Elmer's but it's polyutherene. It really seals. I had to cut some of my established roses down to 12-14 inches. Carla |

| Cane borers also bore in from the side. I've found sealing the ends a useless and thankless and labor intensive task that I no longer bother with. THe damage is no better or worse than when I sealed. |
