| Help! I am battling stink bugs and leaf foot bugs. I have just sprayed Neem oil and it has helped (i think) with everything BUT these two...I'm trying to do this organically but I am looking hard at the sevin or anything else at this point...HELP! I've also done the garlic/onion spray. Also, is it safe to eat the tomatoes that they've snacked on? I have tiny yellow spots on my tomatoes at their injection? sites. Then the yellow seems to spread under the skin of the tomatoes. I just want to throw my hat in and say forget it. And, my garden backs up to a huge soybean field, which I'm sure gets the best chemicals around.

| If everyone tossed the tomatoes that had been snacked on by those insects, we'd never get to eat any! However, the soybean field would worry me. |
